Primary-canard and exponentially narrow transition conjecture

Let μˉ(ε)\bar\mu(\varepsilon) be a parameter function for the canonical three-dimensional system, and let μˉ0=a(a+b)2b2\bar\mu_0=-\frac{a(a+b)}{2b^2}. Primary-canard transition conjecture. There exists a function μˉ(ε)\bar\mu(\varepsilon) such that, for μˉ=μˉ(ε)\bar\mu=\bar\mu(\varepsilon), the system has a primary S1DS_{1D} canard; the transition from mixed-mode oscillations to spiking occurs within an exponentially small interval O(ec/ε)O(e^{-c/\varepsilon}), with c>0c>0, about μˉ(ε)\bar\mu(\varepsilon); and μˉ(0)=μˉ0=a(a+b)2b2\bar\mu(0)=\bar\mu_0=-\frac{a(a+b)}{2b^2}. This combines the conjectured persistence and uniqueness of the singular canard with the predicted exponentially narrow transition.
