In the referenced paper, the authors use the undetermined coefficient method to analytically construct homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits in the T system. Unfortunately their method is not valid because they assume odd functions for the first component of the homoclinic and the heteroclinic orbit whereas these Shil'nikov global connections do not exhibit symmetry.
