Algebraic independence of limit cycles of Lienard equation
It is well known that the Van der Pol equation $$\begin{cases} \dot x=y-(x^3-x)\\\dot y=-x \end{cases}$$ has no an algebraic limit cycle.
According to this fact, we search for a related ...

Counting limit cycles via curvature in Riemannian geometry
In this post we would like to give a possible new approach to the second part of the Hilbert 16th problem
First we give a short introduction:
A quadratic system is a polynomial vector field on ...

Vector fields whose divergence are proper maps
Let $X$ be a polynomial vector field of degree $2$ on $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. Does there exist a nonvanishing smooth function $g$ such that $Div(gX)$ is a proper map?Or at least the zero locus of $Div(...
