Two-dimensional systemsin which P and Q are cubic polynomials, are considered, and a number of classes with several limit cycles are described. Examples of systems with six small-amplitude limit cycles are given. Other classes of systems with several limit cycles are obtained by considering simultaneous bifurcation from a finite critical point and infinity. Simultaneous bifurcation from several critical points is investigated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
