AUTO 2000 is a publicly available software for continuation and bifurcation problems in ordinary differential equations originally written in 1980 and widely used in the dynamical systems community. Originally, AUTO was written in Fortran; see AUTO 97.
Randy Paffenroth developed a C and Python version, AUTO 2000, with lots of nice extra features, like a 3D data viewer, for example.
AUTO also contains the package HomCont which was developed by Alan Champneys, Yuri Kuznetsov and Björn Sandstede. HomCont is a toolbox for numerical homoclinic bifurcation analysis. It deals with continuation of codimension-1 homoclinic orbits to hyperbolic and saddle-node equilibria, including the detection of many codimension-2 singularities and the continuation of these singularities in 3 or more parameters.
