Added:8/15/2024 What about holomorphic or real analytic version? Please see the comment discussions on this post. Assume that $P(x,y), Q(x,y) \in \mathbb{R}[x,y]$ are two polynomials. We def …

In this question, we are interested in the number of limit cycles which appears in the following perturbational system: \begin{equation}\cases{ x'=y -x^{2}+\epsilon P(x,y) \\ y'=-x+\epsilon Q(x,y) } …

Consider the vector field $$X=(y-10x)\partial_x-x\partial_y$$ it is not a gradient vector field with respect to the standard Riemannian metric of $\mathbb{R}^2$ but it is a gradient …

Edit: The previous version of this question contained 2 part. In this new version, I deleted the first part and move it to a new question. Is There a polynomial Hamiltonian $H(x,y,z,w)=zP(x,y)+wQ( …

I found the following * exercise (exercise *9) in page 407 of the book of do Carmo "Differential geometry of curves and surfaces". This problem is a classical theorem which is referenced in the book …

From the figures of page 478 and 479 of this paper one find that the author probably means that we have a (canard) limit cycle for the system $$\begin{cases} x'=y-x^2\\ y'=\epsilon(a-x) \e …

Let $\zeta$ be the classical Riemann zeta function. We define a differential equation on $\mathbb{R}^{2} \setminus \{1\}$ by $\dot Z= \zeta(Z)$. From a foliation point of view this vector …

Is there a polynomial Hamiltonian $H:\mathbb{R}^{4}\to \mathbb{R}$ such that the number of nontrivial periodic orbits of the corresponding Hamiltonian vector field $X_{H}$ is finite but different fro …

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 questio …

Is there a $1$-dimensional foliation of $S^3$ which is not a geodesible foliation? Is there a $1$-dimensional foliation of $S^2\times S^1$ which is not a geodesible foliation? If the answer is affirm …

Is there a non vanishing real analytic vector field $X$ on $S^3$ such that $X$ has an attractor periodic orbit(An asymptotically stable periodic orbit) ? What about the smooth case? …

This question is motivated by the finitness of limit cycles for polynomial vector fields on $\mathbb{R}^2$ Assume that $X,Y$ are two independent polynomial vector fields on $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ such tha …

Let $A$ be the algebra of all smooth functions $f: \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ such that $f$ is flat at the origin and is real analytic on $\mathbb{R}^2 \setminus \{0\}$. Let $B $ be …

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 …

It is well known that a holomorphic vector field $z'=f(z), z\in \mathbb{C}$ does not have any limit cycle.See the last paragraph of this post Orbits space of real-analytic planar foliations One can …
