Limit cycles for a class of second order differential equations

Abstract: We study the limit cycles of a wide class of second order differential equations, which can be seen as a particular perturbation of the harmonic oscillator. In particular, by choosing adequately the perturbed function we show, using the averaging theory, that it is possible to obtain as many limit cycles as we want.

“…The first works in determining the number of limit cycles of a given vector field can be traced back to Liénard [9] and Andronov [1]. After these works, the detection of the number of limit cycles of a polynomial differential system, intrinsically related with the so-called 16th Hilbert problem [7], has been extensively studied in the mathematical community, see for instance the books [3,14] and the papers [5,6,10,11].…”

“…Many applications of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) of different orders can be found in the mathematical modeling of real-life problems. Second-and third-order DEs can be found in Refs [11][12][13][14], and fourth-order DEs often arise in many fields of applied science such as mechanics, quantum chemistry, electronic and control engineering and also beam theory [15], fluid dynamics [16,17], ship dynamics [18] and neural networks [19]. Numerically and analytically numerous approximations to solve such DEs of various orders have is studied in the literature.…”

“…where C is a real constant usually taken as positive, and the dot stays for the time derivative,ẋ = dx/dt of the x-coordinate, is a ubiquitous nonlinear non-autonomous ordinary differential equation with many applications, in particular in problems related to the timedependent harmonic oscillator or in connection with exact solutions of the one-dimensional time-independent Schrödinger equation. In more generality, applications of the EMP equation appear in cosmological models [4][5][6], Bose-Einstein condensates [7,8], photonic lattices [9], accelerator dynamics [10,11], gravitational wave propagation [12], higher order spin models [13], quantum plasmas [14], limit cycles [15], dynamical symmetries [16], magneto-gasdynamics [17], time-dependent non-Hermitian quantum system [18,19], supersymmetric systems [20], noncommutative quantum mechanics [21], etc. Historical notes can be found e.g., in [22,23].…”
