This paper concerns limit cycle bifurcations by perturbing a piecewise linear Hamiltonian system. We first obtain all phase portraits of the unperturbed system having at least one family of periodic orbits. By using the first-order Melnikov function of the piecewise near-Hamiltonian system, we investigate the maximal number of limit cycles that bifurcate from a global center up to first order ofε.

We consider the bifurcation in a class of piecewise polynomial systems with piecewise polynomial perturbations. The corresponding unperturbed system is supposed to possess an elementary or nilpotent critical point. First, we present 17 cases of possible phase portraits and conditions with at least one nonsmooth periodic orbit for the unperturbed system. Then we focus on the two specific cases with two heteroclinic orbits and investigate the number of limit cycles near the loop by means of the first-order Melnikov function, respectively. Finally, we take a quartic piecewise system with quintic piecewise polynomial perturbation as an example and obtain that there can exist ten limit cycles near the heteroclinic loop.

In this paper, the asymptotic expansion of first-order Melnikov function of a heteroclinic loop connecting a cusp of order two and a hyperbolic saddle for a planar near-Hamiltonian system is given. Next, we consider the limit cycle bifurcations of a hyper-elliptic Liénard system with this kind of heteroclinic loop and study the least upper bound of limit cycles bifurcated from the period annulus inside the heteroclinic loop, from the heteroclinic loop itself and the center. We find that at most three limit cycles can be bifurcated from the period annulus, also we present different distributions of bifurcated limit cycles.

In this paper, we study the asymptotic expansion of the first order Melnikov function near a 3-polycycle connecting a cusp (of order one or two) to two hyperbolic saddles for a near-Hamiltonian system in the plane. The formulas for the first coefficients of the expansion are given as well as the method of bifurcation of limit cycles. Then we use the results to study two Hamiltonian systems with this 3-polycycle and determine the number and distribution of limit cycles that can bifurcate from the perturbed systems. Moreover, a sharp upper bound for the number of limit cycles bifurcated from the whole periodic annulus is found when there is a cusp of order one.

In this paper, the general perturbation of piecewise Hamiltonian systems on the plane is considered. When the unperturbed system has a family of periodic orbits, similar to the perturbations of smooth system, an expression of the first order Melnikov function is derived, which can be used to study the number of limit cycles bifurcated from the periodic orbits. As applications, the number of bifurcated limit cycles of several concrete piecewise systems are presented.

In this paper, we consider a class of piecewise smooth Liénard systems. We classify the unperturbed system into three types and study the bifurcation of limit cycles under perturbations. By studying the expansions of the first order Melnikov function, we give some new results on the number of limit cycles in homoclinic bifurcations.

In this paper, we study Poincaré bifurcation of a class of piecewise polynomial systems, whose unperturbed system has a period annulus together with two invariant lines. The main concerns are the number of zeros of the first order Melnikov function and the estimation of the number of limit cycles which bifurcate from the period annulus under piecewise polynomial perturbations of degree [Formula: see text].

In this paper, by using Picard–Fuchs equations and Chebyshev criterion, we study the bifurcation of limit cycles for degenerate quadratic Hamilton systems with polycycles [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] under the perturbations of piecewise smooth polynomials with degree [Formula: see text]. Roughly speaking, for [Formula: see text], a polycycle [Formula: see text] is cyclically ordered collection of [Formula: see text] saddles together with orbits connecting them in specified order. The discontinuity is on the line [Formula: see text]. If the first order Melnikov function is not equal to zero identically, it is proved that the upper bounds of the number of limit cycles bifurcating from each of the period annuli with the boundary [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are respectively [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] (taking into account the multiplicity).

From [Han et al., 2009a] we know that the highest order of the nilpotent center of cubic Hamiltonian system is [Formula: see text]. In this paper, perturbing the Hamiltonian system which has a nilpotent center of order [Formula: see text] at the origin by cubic polynomials, we study the number of limit cycles of the corresponding cubic near-Hamiltonian systems near the origin. We prove that we can find seven and at most seven limit cycles near the origin by the first-order Melnikov function.

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.
