Despite the fact that this system has been studied extensively, we discover a wide variety of previously unknown branches of solutions. We analyze the stability of the newly discovered branches and discuss the bifurcations that relate them to known solutions both in the near linear (Cartesian, as well as polar) and in the highly nonlinear regimes. While deflated continuation is not guaranteed to compute the full bifurcation diagram, this analysis is a potent demonstration that the algorithm can discover new nonlinear states and provide insights into the energy landscape of complex high-dimensional Hamiltonian dynamical systems.}, year = {2018}, journal = {Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation}, volume = {54}, pages = {482-499}, publisher = {Elsevier}, doi = {10.1016/j.cnsns.2017.05.024}, }
