In this paper, we study a Lienard system of the form dot{x}=y-F(x), dot{y}=-x, where F(x) is an odd polynomial. We introduce a method that gives a sequence of algebraic approximations to the equation of each limit cycle of the system. This…

One of the main open problems in the qualitative theory of real planar differential systems is the study of limit cycles. In this article, we present an algorithmic approach for detecting how many limit cycles can bifurcate from the…

We consider a planar Hamiltonian system of the type $Jz' = \nabla_z H(t,z)$, where $H: \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ is a function periodic in the time variable, such that $\nabla_z H(t,0) \equiv 0$ and $\nabla_z H(t,z)$ is…

The Abel differential equation $y'=p(x)y^3 + q(x) y^2$ with polynomial coefficients $p,q$ is said to have a center on $[a,b]$ if all its solutions, with the initial value $y(a)$ small enough, satisfy the condition $y(a)=y(b)$. The problem…

Cima, Ma\~{n}osas and Villadelprat (J. Differ. Equations, 157, 373--413, 1999) proved that a cubic Hamiltonian system possesses an isochronous center at the origin if and only if its Hamiltonian function can be expressed as…

A condition for the synchronizability of a pair of PDE systems, coupled through a finite set of variables, is commonly the existence of internal synchronization or internal coherence in each system separately. The condition was previously…

We introduce the problem Synchronized Planarity. Roughly speaking, its input is a loop-free multi-graph together with synchronization constraints that, e.g., match pairs of vertices of equal degree by providing a bijection between their…

Consider a family of planar systems depending on two parameters $(n,b)$ and having at most one limit cycle. Assume that the limit cycle disappears at some homoclinic (or heteroclinic) connection when $\Phi(n,b)=0.$ We present a method that…

In this paper, we study the isomorphism problem for central extensions. More precisely, in some new situations, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for two central extensions to be isomorphic. We investigate the case when the…

The paper addresses a conjecture of Shapiro and Tater on the similarity between two sets of points in the complex plane; on one side is the values of $t\in \mathbb{C}$ for which the spectrum of the quartic anharmonic oscillator in the…

In this paper we prove the existence of multiple periodic solutions (harmonic and subharmonic) for a class of planar Hamiltonian systems which include the case of the second order scalar ODE $x'' + a(t)g(x) = 0$ with $g$ satisfying a…

We investigate the superintegrability of rigid body rotors coupled to planar systems. In particular, we study the isotropic harmonic oscillator in two dimensions, with its (central) force acting on the rotor's center of mass constrained to…

We present a general approach to the study of synchrony in networks of weakly nonlinear systems described by singularly perturbed equations of the type $x''+x+\epsilon f(x,x')=0$. By performing a perturbative calculation based on normal…

The main objective of this article is to establish a central limit theorem for additive three-variable functionals of bifurcating Markov chains. We thus extend the central limit theorem under point-wise ergodic conditions studied in…

This paper is devoted to study the Lie algebra of linear symmetries of a homogenous 2nd order ODE, by the method of Kushner, Lychagin and Robstov.

In recent decades, piecewise linear differential systems have attracted considerable attention due to their ability to describe a wide range of phenomena. A central problem, as in the theory of general planar differential systems, is to…

We present a geometric characterization of the nonlinear smooth functions $V: R\to R$ for which the origin is a global isochronous center for the scalar equation $\ddot x=-V'(x)$. We revisit Stillinger and Dorignac isochronous potentials…

In this paper we design and analyze algorithms for asynchronously solving linear programs using nonlinear signal processing structures. In particular, we discuss a general procedure for generating these structures such that a fixed-point of…

Our main result is the complete set of explicit conditions necessary and sufficient for isochronicity of a Hamiltonian system with one degree of freedom. The conditions are presented in terms of Taylor coefficients of the Hamiltonian…

For the planar $N$-centre problem $$ \ddot x = - \sum_{i=1}^N \frac{m_i (x-c_i)}{| x - c_i|^{\alpha+2}}, \qquad x \in \mathbb{R}^2 \setminus \{ c_1,\ldots,c_N \}, $$ where $m_i > 0$ for $i=1,\ldots,N$ and $\alpha \in [1,2)$, we prove the…
