Our concern is the study of degenerate Hopf bifurcation of smooth planar dynamical systems near isolated singular points. To do so, we propose to split up the definition of degeneracy into two types. Degeneracy of first kind shall means…
Our main goal in this paper is to study the number of small-amplitude isolated periodic orbits, so-called limit cycles, surrounding only one equilibrium point a class of polynomial Kolmogorov systems. We denote by $\mathcal M_{K}(n)$ the…

For planar polynomials systems the existence of an invariant algebraic curve limits the number of limit cycles not contained in this curve. We present a general approach to prove non existence of periodic orbits not contained in this given…
We obtain condition for existence of a center for a cubic planar differential system, which can be considered as a polynomial subfamily of the generalized Riccati system. We also investigate bifurcations of small limit cycles from the…

We consider three examples of weekly perturbed centers which do not have {\it geometrical equivalence}: a linear center, a degenerate center and a non-hamiltonian center. In each case the number and amplitude of the limit cycles emerging…
In this paper, an interesting and new bifurcation phenomenon that limit cycles could be bifurcated from nilpotent node (focus) by changing its stability was investigated. It is different from lowing its multiplicity in order to get limit…
