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.

Limit cycle problem for quadratic differential system x = -y + lx^2 + mxy, y =x(1 +ax +by)

The maximal number of limit cycles for a particular type Ⅲ system x = -y + lx2 + mxy, y =x(1 + ax + by) is studied and some errors that appeared in the paper by Suo Mingxia and Yue Xiting (Annals of Differential Equations, 2003,19(3):397-401) are corrected. By translating the system to be considered into the Lienard type and by using some related properties, we obtain several theorems with suitable conditions coefficients of the system, under which we prove that the system has at most two limit cycles. The conclusions improve the results given in Suo and Yue's paper mentioned above.

Hopf Cyclicity of a Family of Generic Reversible Quadratic Systems with One Center

This paper is concerned with small quadratic perturbations to one parameter family of generic reversible quadratic vector fields with a simple center. The first objective is to show that this system exhibits two small amplitude limit cycles emerging from a Hopf bifurcation. The second one we prove that the system has no limit cycle around the weak focus of order two. The results may be viewed as a contribution to proving the conjecture on cyclicity proposed by Iliev(1998).
