Abstract The behavior of center-indices, as introduced by J. Mallet-Paret & J. Yorke, is analyzed for two-parameter flows. The integer sum of center-indices along a one-dimensional curve in parameter space is called the H-index. A nonzero H-index implies global Hopf bifurcation. The index H is not a homotopy invariant. This fact is due to the occurrence of stationary points with an algebraically double eigenvalue zero, which we call B-points. To each B-point we assign an integer B-index, such that the H-index relates to the B-indices by a formula such as occurs in the calculus of residues. This formula is easily applied to study global bifurcation of periodic solutions in diffusively coupled two-cells of chemical oscillators and to treat spatially heterogeneous time-periodic oscillations in porous catalysts.
