Linear Response Predicts Cusp-Pair Births in Networks with a Localized Cubic
Abstract
Linear response is cheap to measure; the bistability boundaries it organizes are not. For a passive network with one localized cubic, the driving-point receptance G fixes the period-one cusp set at fundamental-harmonic order: cusps lie on a fixed phase contour of G, a tangency of that contour under parameter variation creates a pair, and its curvature separates a gap opening from an isolated loop. For a two-mode absorber the linear prediction locates a benchmark birth coupling to 0.3%, and to 0.03% once a third-harmonic correction of scale $|G(3Ω)/G(Ω)|$ is included.
