By using the singular perturbation theory on canard cycles, we investigate the canard phenomenon for the Holling-Tanner model with the intrinsic growth rate of the predator small enough. The obtained result shows that there may be at most one canard limit cycle, and the range of small parameters is estimated. The phenomenon of outbreak is explained.

In this paper, we propose an SIRS epidemic model with a new complex nonlinear incidence rate, which describes the psychological effect of some diseases on the community as the number of infective individuals increases, including linear and nonlinear hazards of infection. The canard phenomenon for the model is analyzed, and its epidemiological meaning is discussed. By using geometrical singular perturbation theory and blow up technique, we investigate the relaxation oscillation of the model with the special fold point [Formula: see text]. The unique existence of the limit cycle is proved. We verify the existence of the canard cycle without head by using singular perturbation theory and analyze the cyclicity of the limit cycle. The detailed formula for slow divergence integral of the model is presented. We also discuss and prove the existence of the canard cycle with head. Numerical simulations are done to demonstrate our theoretical results.

Abstract The concept of the renormalization group (RG) emerged from the renormalization of quantum field variables, which is typically used to deal with the issue of divergences to infinity in quantum field theory. Meanwhile, in the study of phase transitions and critical phenomena, it was found that the self–similarity of systems near critical points can be described using RG methods. Furthermore, since self–similarity is often a defining feature of a complex system, the RG method is also devoted to characterizing complexity. In addition, the RG approach has also proven to be a useful tool to analyze the asymptotic behavior of solutions in the singular perturbation theory. In this review paper, we discuss the origin, development, and application of the RG method in a variety of fields from the physical, social and life sciences, in singular perturbation theory, and reveal the need to connect the RG and the fractional calculus (FC). The FC is another basic mathematical approach for describing complexity. RG and FC entail a potentially new world view, which we present as a way of thinking that differs from the classical Newtonian view. In this new framework, we discuss the essential properties of complex systems from different points of view, as well as, presenting recommendations for future research based on this new way of thinking.

A general theorem about the existence of periodic solutions for equations with distributed delays is obtained by using the linear chain trick and geometric singular perturbation theory. Two examples are given to illustrate the application of the general the general therom.
