This paper generalizes the theory of imperfect bifurcation via singularity theory as developed by M. Golubitsky and D. Schaeffer to a Banach space setting. Like the parameter-free potential catastrophe theory, where similar generalizations have been discussed in the literature, Banach control spaces allow useful uniform control of function parameters through the universal unfolding. Among the results are tests for various germ properties and discussion of their reducibility under a Liapunov—Schmidt type splitting, as well as a generalization of the finite dimensional unfolding and germ classification theory.
