Limit cycles bifurcating from a family of reversible quadratic centers via averaging theory
Consider the class of reversible quadratic systems x· = y, y· = -x + x²+ y² - r², with r > 0. These quadratic polynomial differential systems have a center at the point ((1 -√(1+4r²)/2, 0) and the circle x² + y² = r² is one of the periodic orbits surrounding this center. These systems can be writ...

| Summary: | Consider the class of reversible quadratic systems x· = y, y· = -x + x²+ y² - r², with r > 0. These quadratic polynomial differential systems have a center at the point ((1 -√(1+4r²)/2, 0) and the circle x² + y² = r² is one of the periodic orbits surrounding this center. These systems can be written into the form x· = y + (4 + A)x² - Ay², y· = -x, with A ϵ (-2, 0). For all A ϵ R we prove that the averaging theory up to seventh order applied to this last system perturbed inside the whole class of quadratic polynomial differential systems can produce at most two limit cycles bifurcating from the periodic orbits surrounding the center (0,0) of that system. Up to now this result was only known for A = -2 (see [22, 23]). |
