We study global bifurcations in generic 3-parameter families of vector fields on $S^2$. In the recent article [arXiv:1506.06797], Ilyashenko, Kudryashov, and Schurov show that 3-parameter unfoldings of vector fields with the polycycle…
We demonstrate with a minimal example that in Filippov systems (dynamical systems governed by discontinuous but piecewise smooth vector fields) stable periodic motion with sliding is not robust with respect to stable singular perturbations.…
We study a class of planar continuous piecewise linear vector fields with three zones. Using the Poincar\'e map and some techniques for proving the existence of limit cycles for smooth differential systems, we prove that this class admits…
In this paper, we are concerned about the qualitative behavior of planar Filippov systems around some typical invariant sets, namely, polycycles. In the smooth context, a polycycle is a simple closed curve composed by a collection of…
We consider the 1-parameter family of planar quintic systems, $\dot x= y^3-x^3$, $\dot y= -x+my^5$, introduced by A. Bacciotti in 1985. It is known that it has at most one limit cycle and that it can exist only when the parameter $m$ is in…
We consider diffeomorphisms $f$ with heteroclinic cycles associated to saddles $P$ and $Q$ of different indices. We say that a cycle of this type can be stabilized if there are diffeomorphisms close to $f$ with a robust cycle associated to…

The cyclicity problem, crucial in analyzing planar vector fields, consists in estimating the number of limit cycles emanating from monodromic singularities. Traditionally, this estimation relies on Lyapunov coefficients. However, in…
We introduce the concept of 2-cyclicity for families of one-dimensional maps with a non-hyperbolic fixed point by analogy to the cyclicity for families of planar vector fields with a weak focus. This new concept is useful in order to study…
