We study analytic properties of the Poincaré return map and generalized focal values of analytic planar systems with a nilpotent focus or center. We use the focal values and the map to study the number of limit cycles of this kind of systems and obtain some new results on the lower and upper bounds of the maximal number of limit cycles bifurcating from the nilpotent focus or center. The main results generalize the classical Hopf bifurcation theory and establish the new bifurcation theory for the nilpotent case.

In the two articles in Appl. Math. Comput., J. Giné [2012a, 2012b] studied the number of small limit cycles bifurcating from the origin of the system: [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are homogeneous polynomials of degree [Formula: see text]. It is shown that the maximal number of the small limit cycles, denoted by [Formula: see text], satisfies [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]; and [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. It seems that the correct answer for their case [Formula: see text] should be [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we apply Hopf bifurcation theory and normal form computation, and perturb the isolated, nondegenerate center (the origin) to prove that [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]; and [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text], which improve Giné’s results with one more limit cycle for each case.

In this paper, we mainly discuss Hopf bifurcation for planar nonsmooth general systems and Liénard systems with foci of parabolic–parabolic (PP) or focus–parabolic (FP) type. For the bifurcation near a focus, when the focus is kept fixed under perturbations we prove that there are at most k limit cycles which can be produced from an elementary weak focus of order 2k + 2 ( resp. k + 1)(k ≥ 1) if the focus is of PP (resp. FP) type, and we present the conditions to ensure these upper bounds are achievable. For the bifurcation near a center, the Hopf cyclicicy is studied for these systems. Some interesting applications are presented.

Limit cycle bifurcation problem of Kolmogorov model is interesting and significant both in theory and applications. In this paper, we will focus on investigating limit cycles for a class of quartic Kolmogorov model with three positive equilibrium points. Perturbed model can bifurcate three small limit cycles near (1, 2) or (2, 1) under a certain condition and can bifurcate one limit cycle near (1, 1). In addition, we have given some examples of simultaneous Hopf bifurcation and the structure of limit cycles bifurcated from three positive equilibrium points. The limit cycle bifurcation problem for Kolmogorov model with several positive equilibrium points are less seen in published references. Our result is good and interesting.

Applying qualitative theory and Hopf bifurcation theory, we detailedly discuss the Merkin enzyme reaction system, and the sufficient conditions derived for the global stability of the unique positive equilibrium, the local stability of three equilibria and the existence of limit cycles. Meanwhile, we show that the Hopf bifurcations may occur. Using MATLAB software, we present three examples to simulate these conclusions in this paper.

In this paper, we study the number and distribution of small limit cycles of some Z4-equivariant near-Hamiltonian system of degree 9. Using the methods of Hopf bifurcation theory, we find that this system can have 64 small limit cycles. The configuration of 64 small limit cycles of the system is also illustrated in Fig. 1. When we let some parameters be zero, then we find that there can be 40 small limit cycles in a seventh system.

We propose an approach to study small limit cycle bifurcations on a center manifold in analytic or smooth systems depending on parameters. We then apply it to the investigation of limit cycle bifurcations in a model of calcium oscillations in the cilia of olfactory sensory neurons and show that it can have two limit cycles: a stable cycle appearing after a Bautin (generalized Hopf) bifurcation and an unstable cycle appearing after a subcritical Hopf bifurcation.

We study the system ẋ = x(y+2z+(15/2η2)u), ẏ = y(x-2z-(7/2η2)u), ż = -z(x+y+(4/η2)u), u = x+y+z-1, and its two-parameter perturbations. We show that before perturbation there exists a one-parameter family of periodic solutions obtained via a nondegenarate Hopf bifurcation and after perturbation there remains at most one limit cycle of small amplitude and bounded period. Moreover, we found that a secondary Hopf bifurcation to an invariant torus occurs after the perturbation.

In this paper, a possible degeneration of the focus-center-limit cycle bifurcation for piecewise smooth continuous systems is analyzed. The case of continuous piecewise linear systems with two zones is considered, and the coexistence of two limit cycles for certain values of parameters is justified. Finally, the Chua's circuit is shown to exhibit the analyzed bifurcation. The obtained bifurcation set in the parameter plane is similar to the degenerate Hopf bifurcation for differentiable systems.

AbstractThe existence of stable periodic oscillatory solutions in a two species competition model with time delays is established using a combination of Hopf-bifurcation theory and the asymptotic method of Krylov, Bogoliuboff and Mitropoisky.

In this paper, we consider the problem of limit cycle bifurcation near center points and a Z2-equivariant compound cycle in a polynomial Liénard system. Using the methods of Hopf, homoclinic and heteroclinic bifurcation theory, we found some new and better lower bounds of the maximal number of limit cycles for this system.
