Abstract
In this thesis, we study theory on the Hopf bifurcation, and apply this theory to the Lorenz-96 model. We consider the system in four dimensions, and determine whether the bifurcation is supercritical or subcritical using center manifold reduction and normal form analysis. We compute the first Lyapunov coefficient to be negative, meaning that the Hopf bifurcation is supercritical, and results in a stable limit cycle.
