Center conditions for generalized polynomial Kukles systems (Q507291)

In the article the following generalized Kukles system is considered \[ \begin{aligned} \dot x=&y,\\ \dot y=&-x-b_2x^2- (a_1x+ a_2x^2+a_3x^3)y\\&\qquad -(c_1x+ c_2x^2+ c_3 x^3)y^2- (d_1x+ d_2x^2+ d_3x^3)y^3,\end{aligned}\tag{1} \] where \(a_i\), \(b_i\), \(c_i\), \(d_i\) are real constants. The main results are: Theorem 1. Let be in system (1) \(b_3=0\). Then system (1) has a center if and only if one of the following conditions holds: (a) \(a_3= c_3= d_3=0\), \(a_2=a_1b_2\), \(c_2= c_1b_2\), \(d_2= d_1b_2\); (b) \(a_2= b_2= c_2= d_2= 0\); (c) \(a_3= a_2- a_1b_2= 3d_3- a_1c_3= a_1b_2c_1- a_1c_2- 3b_2d_1+ 3d_2= 2a^3_1- 9a_1c_1+ 27d_1=0\). Theorem 2. Let be in system (1) \(a_3=c_3=d_3= 0\). Then system (1) has a center if and only if one of the following conditions holds: (a) \(b_3=0\), \(a_2= a_1b_2\), \(c_2= c_1b_2\), \(d_2= d_1b_2\); (b) \(a_2= b_2= c_2=d= 0\); (c) \(b_3= a_2- a_1b_2= a_1b_2c_1- a_1c_2- 3b_2d_1+ 3d_2= 2a^3_1- 9a_1c_1+ 27d_1= 0\); (d) \(a_1= a_2= d_1= d_2= 0\).
