Time delay control of symmetry-breaking primary and secondary oscillation death

We show that oscillation death as a specific type of oscillation suppression, which implies symmetry breaking, can be controlled by introducing time-delayed coupling. In particular, we demonstrate that time delay influences the stability of an inhomogeneous steady state, providing the opportunity to modulate the threshold for oscillation death. Additionally, we find a novel type of oscillation death representing a secondary bifurcation of an inhomogeneous steady state.
