Abstract
Higher order nonlinear effects of site blocking, which induces oscillations in the Monte Carlo simulation of CO oxidation, are outlined here. It is shown that the rate equations which include these effects exhibit a supercritical Hopf bifurcation in parameter domains where Monte Carlo simulations lead to oscillations.
