In the present paper we provide an interesting example of a non-degenerate precession possessing two distinct pairs p , f , p , f of axes of precession and figure. Thus the problem arises of the existence of classes of precessions possessing a unique axis of precession and a unique axis of figure. In the fourth section we show that the class of non-degenerate regular precessions enjoys this property.

Integrable systems in the plane with center type linear part

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study integrability of two-dimensional autonomous systems in the plane with center type linear part. For quadratic and homogeneous cubic systems we give a simple characterization for integrable cases, and we find explicitly all first integrals for these cases. Finally, two large integrable system classes are determined in the most general nonhomogeneous cases.
