Branching of Periodic Orbits from Kukles Isochrones

چکیده
We study local bifurcations of limit cycles from isochronous (or linearizable) centers. The isochronicity has been determined using the method of Darboux linearization, which provides a birational linearization for the examples that we analyze. This transformation simplifies the analysis by avoiding the complexity of the Abelian integrals appearing in other approaches. As an application of this approach, we show that the Kukles isochrone (linear and nonlinear) has at most one branch point of limit cycles. Moreover, for each isochrone, there are small perturbations with exactly one continuous family of limit cycles.

Bifurcations from one-parameter families of symmetric periodic orbits in reversible systems
We study bifurcations from one-parameter families of symmetric periodic orbits in reversible systems and give simple criteria for subharmonic symmetric periodic orbits to be born from the one-parameter families. Our result is illustrated for a generalization of the Hénon-Heiles system. In particular, it is shown that there exist infinitely many families of symmetric periodic orbits bifurcating ...
متن کاملOn the bifurcation and Continuation of periodic orbits in the Three Body Problem
We study some new types of bifurcation of periodic orbits in the planar three body problem (TBP) consisting of a heavy body (star) and two bodies of small or negligible mass (planets). When one planet has zero mass, we have the restricted TBP. If the massive planet revolves in a circular orbit around the star, we get the circular restricted model (CRTBP) and if its orbit is elliptic, with eccen...
متن کاملPeriodic Orbits of a Collinear Restricted Three Body Problem
In this paper we study symmetric periodic orbits of a collinear restricted three body problem, when the middle mass is the largest one. These symmetric periodic orbits are obtained from analytic continuation of symmetric periodic orbits of two collinear two body problems.
متن کاملCenters and limit cycles of polynomial differential systems of degree 4 via averaging theory
In this paper we classify the phase portraits in the Poincaré disc of the centers of the generalized class of Kukles systems ẋ = −y, ẏ = x+ axy + bxy, symmetric with respect to the y-axis, and we study, using the averaging theory up to sixth order, the limit cycles which bifurcate from the periodic solutions of these centers when we perturb them inside the class of all polynomial differential s...
متن کاملFamilies of Periodic Orbits for the Spatial Isosceles 3-Body Problem
We study the families of periodic orbits of the spatial isosceles 3-body problem (for small enough values of the mass lying on the symmetry axis) coming via the analytic continuation method from periodic orbits of the circular Sitnikov problem. Using the first integral of the angular momentum, we reduce the dimension of the phase space of the problem by two units. Since periodic orbits of the r...
