On algebraic solutions of algebraic Pfaff equations

Henryk Żołądek (1995)

Studia Mathematica

We give a new proof of Jouanolou’s theorem about non-existence of algebraic solutions to the system = z s , = x s , ż = y s . We also present some generalizations of the results of Darboux and Jouanolou about algebraic Pfaff forms with algebraic solutions.

On the center of the generalized Liénard system

Cheng Dong Zhao, Qi-Min He (2002)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In this paper, we discuss the conditions for a center for the generalized Liénard system d x d t = ϕ ( y ) - F ( x ) , d y d t = - g ( x ) , or d x d t = ψ ( y ) , dy d t = - f ( x ) h ( y ) - g ( x ) , with f ( x ) , g ( x ) , ϕ ( y ) , ψ ( y ) , h ( y ) , F ( x ) = 0 x f ( x ) d x , and x g ( x ) > 0 for x 0 . By using a different technique, that is, by introducing auxiliary systems and using the differential inquality theorem, we are able to generalize and improve some results in [1], [2].

On the limit cycle of the Liénard equation

Kenzi Odani (2000)

Archivum Mathematicum

In the paper, we give an existence theorem of periodic solution for Liénard equation x ˙ = y - F ( x ) , y ˙ = - g ( x ) . As a result, we estimate the amplitude ρ ( μ ) (maximal x -value) of the limit cycle of the van der Pol equation x ˙ = y - μ ( x 3 / 3 - x ) , y ˙ = - x from above by ρ ( μ ) < 2 . 3439 for every μ 0 . The result is an improvement of the author’s previous estimation ρ ( μ ) < 2 . 5425 .
