We study the number of limit cycles that a planar polynomial vector field can have as a function of its number $m$ of monomials. We prove that the number of limit cycles increases at least quadratically with $m$ and we provide good lower…

This paper is concerned with the limit cycles for planar semi-quasi-homogeneous polynomial systems. We give some explicit criteria for the nonexistence and existence of periodic orbits. Let $N=N(p,q,m,n)$ be the maximum number of limit…

We find an upper bound to the maximal number of limit cycles, which bifurcate from a hamiltonian two-saddle loop of an analytic vector field, under an analytic deformation.

We prove that the number of limit cycles generated by a small non-conservative perturbation of a Hamiltonian polynomial vector field on the plane, is bounded by a double exponential of the degree of the fields. This solves the long-standing…

In this paper we consider the limit cycles of the planar system $$\frac{d}{dt}(x,y)=\mathbf X_n+\mathbf X_m, $$ where $\mathbf X_n$ and $\mathbf X_m$ are quasi-homogeneous vector fields of degree $n$ and $m$ respectively. We prove that…
