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…
We classify all topological phase portraits of the polynomial generalized Li\'enard system, determined by three arbitrary polynomials, at the origin and the infinity. This yields a complete characterization of monodromy at the origin and…
The great innovation of the Generalized Theorem is that it gives us the philosophy to work out the knowledge that the number of roots of an equation depends on the subfields of the functional terms of the equation they generate. Thus, the…
Synthesis problems for linkages in kinematics often yield large structured parameterized polynomial systems which generically have far fewer solutions than traditional upper bounds would suggest. This paper describes statistical models for…
We discuss generalizations of some results on lattice polygons to certain piecewise linear loops which may have a self-intersection but have vertices in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We first prove a formula on the rotation number of a…
The paper deals with planar polynomial vector fields. We aim to estimate the number of orbital topological equivalence classes for the fields of degree n. An evident obstacle for this is the second part of Hilbert's 16th problem. To…
We study a system of nonlinear elliptic PDEs associated with a quasi-homogeneous polynomial. These equations were proposed by Witten as the replacement for the Cauchy-Riemann equation in the singularity (Landau-Ginzburg) setting. We…
We describe the sets of accumulation of secants for orbits of real analytic vector fields in dimension three having the origin as only {\omega}-limit point. It is a kind of infinitesimal Poincar\'e-Bendixson problem in dimension three.…

We give an effective method for controlling the maximum number of limit cycles of some planar polynomial systems. It is based on a suitable choice of a Dulac function and the application of the well-known Bendixson-Dulac Criterion for…
We propose a general framework for geometric approximation of circular arcs by parametric polynomial curves. The approach is based on constrained uniform approximation of an error function by scalar polynomials. The system of nonlinear…
Hilbert's 14th problem studies the finite generation property of the intersection of an integral algebra of finite type with a subfield of the field of fractions of the algebra. It has a negative answer due to the counterexample of Nagata.…
The XL algorithm is an algorithm for solving overdetermined systems of multivariate polynomial equations, which was initially introduced for quadratic equations. However, the algorithm works for polynomials of any degree, and in this paper…
Parametric linear systems are linear systems of equations in which some symbolic parameters, that is, symbols that are not considered to be candidates for elimination or solution in the course of analyzing the problem, appear in the…
In this paper, we consider some cubic near-Hamiltonian systems obtained from perturbing the symmetric cubic Hamiltonian system with two symmetric singular points by cubic polynomials. First, following Han [2012] we develop a method to study…

The paper deals with the {\it infinitesimal Hilbert 16th problem}: to find an upper estimate of the number of zeros of an Abelian integral regarded as a function of a parameter. In more details, consider a real polynomial $ H$ of degree $…

In this paper, we study the distance problem in the setting of finite p-adic rings. In odd dimensions, our results are essentially sharp. In even dimensions, we clarify the conjecture and provide examples to support it. Surprisingly,…
