Linear Differential

We study the number of limit cycles of the discontinuous piecewise linear differential systems in ℝ2n with two zones separated by a hyperplane. Our main result shows that at most (8n - 6)n-1 limit cycles can bifurcate up to first-order expansion of the displacement function with respect to a small parameter. For proving this result, we use the averaging theory in a form where the differentiability of the system is not necessary.

Linear Differential

We study the bifurcation of limit cycles from the periodic orbits of a two-dimensional (resp. four-dimensional) linear center in ℝn perturbed inside a class of discontinuous piecewise linear differential systems. Our main result shows that at most 1 (resp. 3) limit cycle can bifurcate up to first-order expansion of the displacement function with respect to the small parameter. This upper bound is reached. For proving these results, we use the averaging theory in a form where the differentiability of the system is not needed.

The Relationship

In this paper we study second order linear differential systems. We examine the relationship between oscillation of n-dimensional systems and certain associated n-dimensional systems, where m ≧ n. Several theorems are presented which unify and encompass in the linear case a number of results from the literature. In particular, we present a transformation which extends an oscillation theorem due to Allegretto and Erbe [1], and a comparison theorem due to Kreith [9], and explains some work of Howard [7].

SynopsisWe consider ordinary linear differential systems of first order with distributional coefficients and distributional nonhomogeneous terms. Firstly the coefficients are assumed to be functions, secondly to be first order distributions (i.e. first derivatives of functions which are integrable or of bounded variation), and thirdly to be distributions of higher order.
