The perturbation of non-Hamiltonian algebraic vector fields

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) } …

Canard limit cycle for certain singularly perturbed system (Is there a contradictory situati...

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 …

Hilbert 16th problem via hyperbolic geometry

More than 16 years ago, I heard from someone that he thinks that there is a possible relation between Hilbert's 16th problem(for $n=2$) and Hyperbolic geometry. He says that a po …

Is existence of a limit cycles an obstruction for a vector field to be a global Jacobi field?

Is there a Riemannian metric on $S^2$ and a vector field $X$ on $S^2$ with the following two properties? The vector field $X$ is globaly a Jacobi field in the sense that for every point $x\in S^2$ t …
