On a Family of Hamilton–Poisson Jerk Systems

Abstract

In this paper, we construct a family of Hamilton–Poisson jerk systems. We show that such a system has infinitely many Hamilton–Poisson realizations. In addition, we discuss the stability and we prove the existence of periodic orbits around nonlinearly stable equilibrium points. Particularly, we deduce conditions for the existence of homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits. We apply the obtained results to a family of anharmonic oscillators.
