Integrability and algebraic limit cycles for polynomial differential systems with homogeneous nonlinearities (Q1763679)

The authors consider a class of planar differential systems with homogeneous polynomials of degree~\(n\) which can have either a center or a focus at the origin and identify a new subclass of Darbouxian integrable systems. Under generic conditions, such integrable systems can have at most one limit cycle, and this cycle is algebraic. For the cases \(n=2\) and \(n=3,\) the authors present also new classes of Darbouxian integrable systems having a focus at the origin.
