LIMIT CYCLE PROBLEM OF QUADRATIC SYSTEM OF TYPE （ Ⅲ ）m=0, （ Ⅲ ）

To continue the discussion in （Ⅰ ） and （ Ⅱ ）,and finish the study of the limit cycle problem for quadratic system （ Ⅲ ）m=0 in this paper. Since there is at most one limit cycle that may be created from critical point O by Hopf bifurcation,the number of limit cycles depends on the different situations of separatrix cycle to be formed around O. If it is a homoclinic cycle passing through saddle S1 on 1 ＋ax-y = 0,which has the same stability with the limit cycle created by Hopf bifurcation,then the uniqueness of limit cycles in such cases can be proved. If it is a homoclinic cycle passing through saddle N on x= 0,which has the different stability from the limit cycle created by Hopf bifurcation,then it will be a case of two limit cycles. For the case when the separatrix cycle is a heteroclinic cycle passing through two saddles at infinity,the discussion of the paper shows that the number of limit cycles will change from one to two depending on the different values of parameters of system.

Existence of Two Limit Cycles in Zeeman’s Class 30 for 3D Lotka-Volterra Competitive System

Gyllenberg and Yan(Discrete Contin Dyn Syst Ser B 11(2):347–352,2009)presented a system in Zeeman’s class 30 of 3-dimensional Lotka-Volterra(3D LV)competitive systems to admit at least two limit cycles,one of which is generated by the Hopf bifurcation and the other is obtained by the Poincaré-Bendixson theorem.Yu et al.(J Math Anal Appl 436:521–555,2016,Sect.3.4)recalculated the first Liapunov coefficient of Gyllenberg and Yan’s system to be positive,rather than negative as in Gyllenberg and Yan(2009),and pointed out that the Poincaré-Bendixson theorem is not applicable for that system.Jiang et al.(J Differ Equ 284:183–218,2021,p.213)proposed an open question:“whether Zeeman’s class 30 can be rigorously proved to admit at least two limit cycles by the Hopf theorem and the Poincaré-Bendixson theorem?”This paper provides four systems in Zeeman’s class 30 to admit at least two limit cycles by the Hopf theorem and the Poincaré-Bendixson theorem and gives an answer to the above question.

It is proved that the quadratic system with a weak focus and a strong focus has at most one limit cycle around the strong focus, and as the weak focus is a 2nd order(or 3rd order) weak focus the quadratic system has at most two(one) limit cycles which have (1,1) distribution ((0,1) distribution).

Bifurcation and Limit Cycle of a Ratio-dependent Predator-prey, System with Refuge on Prey

Influences of prey refuge on the dynamics of a predator-prey model with ratio-dependent functional response are investigated. The local and global stability of positive equilibrium of the system are considered. Theoretical analysis indicates that constant refuge leads to the system undergo supercritical Hopf bifurcation twice with the birth rate of prey species changing continuously.

The center conditions and bifurcation of limit cycles for a class of fifth degree systems are investigated.Two recursive formulas to compute singular quantities at infinity and at the origin are given.The first nine singular point quantities at infinity and first seven singular point quantities at the origin for the system are given in order to get center conditions and study bifurcation of limit cycles.Two fifth degree systems are constructed.One allows the appearance of eight limit cycles in the neighborhood of infinity,which is the first example that a polynomial differential system bifurcates eight limit cycles at infinity.The other perturbs six limit cycles at the origin.

Limit Cycle Bifurcations in a Class of Cubic System near a Nilpotent Center

Limit cycles and homoclinic orbits and their bifurcation of Bogdanov-Takens system

A quantitative analysis of limit cycles and homoclinic orbits, and the bifurcation curve for the Bogdanov-Takens system are discussed. The parameter incremental method for approximate analytical-expressions of these problems is given. These analytical-expressions of the limit cycle and homoclinic orbit are shown as the generalized harmonic functions by employing a time transformation. Curves of the parameters and the stability characteristic exponent of the limit cycle versus amplitude are drawn. Some of the limit cycles and homoclinic orbits phase portraits are plotted. The relationship curves of parameters μ and A with amplitude a and the bifurcation diagrams about the parameter are also given. The numerical accuracy of the calculation results is good.

Amplitude control of limit cycle in a van der Pol Duffing system

This paper applies washout filter technology to amplitude control of limit cycles emerging from Hopf bifurcation of the van der Pol-Duffing system. The controlling parameters for the appearance of Hopf bifurcation are given by the Routh-Hurwitz criteria. Noticeably, numerical simulation indicates that the controllers control the amplitude of limit cycles not only of the weakly nonlinear van der Pol-Duffing system but also of the strongly nonlinear van der Pol-Duffing system. In particular, the emergence of Hopf bifurcation can be controlled by a suitable choice of controlling parameters. Gain-amplitude curves of controlled systems are also drawn.

Center Conditions and Bifurcation of Limit Cycles at Nilpotent Critical Point in a Quintic Lyapunov System

In this paper, center conditions and bifurcation of limit cycles at the nilpotent critical point in a class of quintic polynomial differential system are investigated. With the help of computer algebra system MATHEMATICA, the first 8 quasi Lyapunov constants are deduced. As a result, the necessary and sufficient conditions to have a center are obtained. The fact that there exist 8 small amplitude limit cycles created from the three-order nilpotent critical point is also proved. Henceforth we give a lower bound of cyclicity of three-order nilpotent critical point for quintic Lyapunov systems.
