Abstract

In this short course I will introduce some elements of bifurcation theory, such as the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction, the bifurcation from the simple eigenvalue, and the Krasnoselski bifurcation theorem. Then, I will discuss some applications to the theory of MFG systems: existence of periodic in time solutions, and multi-population problems.
