Abstract :
In this paper, a delayed model of gene expression with positive feedback loop is investigated. The model takes the form of delay differential equations. By choosing the time delay as bifurcation parameter, small amplitude periodic solutions are obtained due to Hopf bifurcation. Furthermore, global existence of bifurcating periodic solutions is established with the help of global bifurcation theory.
