We interest in the behaviour of the period function for equations of the type $u'' + g(u) = 0$ and $u'' + f(u)u' + g(u) = 0$ with a center at the origin 0. $g$ is a function of class $C^k$. For the conservative case, if $k \geq 2$ one shows…

In this work we study the equation $(E) \ddot x + f(x) \dot x^2 + g(x) = 0$ with a center at 0 and investigate conditions of its isochronicity. When $f$ and $g$ are analytic (not necessary odd) a necessary and sufficient condition for the…
