Abstract

We develop general methods for rigorously computing continuous branches of bifurcation points of equilibria, specifically focusing on fold points and on pitchfork bifurcations which are forced through $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetries in the equation. We apply these methods to secondary bifurcation points of the one-dimensional diblock copolymer model.
