Abstract
We present a geometric explanation of a basic mechanism
generating mixed-mode oscillations in a prototypical simple
model of a chemical oscillator. Our approach is based on
geometric singular perturbation theory and canard solutions. We
explain how the small oscillations are generated near a special
point, which is classified as a folded saddle-node for the
reduced problem. The canard solution passing through this point
separates small oscillations from large relaxation type
oscillations. This allows to define a one-dimensional return
map in a natural way. This bimodal map is capable of
explaining the observed bifurcation sequence convincingly.
