Exactly solvable Stuart-Landau models in arbitrary dimensions

We use Clifford's geometric algebra to extend the Stuart-Landau system to dimensions D>2 and give an exact solution of the oscillator equations in the general case. At the supercritical Hopf bifurcation marked by a transition from stable fixed-point dynamics to oscillatory motion, the Jacobian matrix evaluated at the fixed point has N=⌊D/2⌋ pairs of complex conjugate eigenvalues which cross the imaginary axis simultaneously. For odd D there is an additional purely real eigenvalue that does the same. Oscillatory dynamics is asymptotically confined to a hypersphere S^{D-1} and is characterised by extreme multistability, namely the coexistence of an infinite number of limiting orbits, each of which has the geometry of a torus T^{N} on which the motion is either periodic or quasiperiodic. We also comment on similar Clifford extensions of other limit cycle oscillator systems and their generalizations.
