Abstract: The nonlinear differential system dotx=sumi=0ellPmi(x,y),doty=sumi=0ellQmi(x,y) is considered, where Pmi and Qmi are homogeneous polynomials of degree migeq1 in x and y, m0=1. The set 1,mii=1ell consists of a finite number (ell<infty) of distinct natural numbers. It is shown that the maximal number of algebraically independent focal quantities that take part in solving the center-focus problem for the given differential system with m0=1, having at the origin of coordinates a singular point of the second type (center or focus), does not exceed varrho=2(sumi=1ellmi+ell)+3. We make an assumption that the number omega of essential conditions for center which solve the center-focus problem for this differential system does not exceed varrho, i.,e. omegaleqvarrho.

The set \(\{1,m_i\}^l_{i=1}\) consists of a finite number \((l<\infty)\) of distinct integer numbers. It is proved that the maximal number of algebraically independent focal quantities that take part in solving the center-focus problem for the given differential system with \(m_0=1\), having at the origin of coordinates a singular point of the second type (center or focus), does not exceed NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\rho=2\Biggl(\sum^l_{i=1} m_i+ l\Biggr)+3.NEWLINE\]
