Summary :

We consider a ring of n Rayleigh oscillators coupled hybridly. Using the symmetrical property of the system we demonstrate the degeneracy of the Hopf bifurcation of the equilibrium at the origin. The degeneracy implies the exstence and stability of the n-phase oscillation. We discuss some consequences of the perturbation of the symmetry. Then we study the case n = 3. We show the bifurcation diagram of the equilibria and of hte periodic solutions. Especially, we analyze the mechanism for the symmetry breaking bifurcation of the fully symmetric solution. We report and explain the occurrence of both chaotic attractors and repellors and show two types of symmetry recovering crisis they undergo.
