Is the closed orbit of the Van der Pol equation a stable periodic orbit?

We consider the Van der Pol vector field $$(1) \;\;\;\;\;\; \begin{cases} x'=y-(x^3-x)\\ y'=-x\end{cases}$$ on $\mathbb{R}^2.$ It is well known that this equation has a unique limit ...

Holomorphic vector field with infinite separatrix

Let $V=\sum_{i=1}^{n}a_i(z_1,\ldots z_n)\frac{\partial}{\partial z_i}$ be a holomorphic vector field defined on a neighborhood $U\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ of the origin, such that the common zero point of ...

Two limit cycles which lie on the same leaf

Edit 1: For a related discussion see this MSE post I apologize in advance, if this question is obvious: 1)What is an example of a polynomial vector field on $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ with at least two ...

Analytic ODE with complex time

Suppose we have a complex vector field on $\mathbb{C}^n$ which is analytic and has $|DV| < L$ on ball $B_r$ with radius r. I would like to understand: 1) if there exists an analytic flow $\phi_t(x)...
