No label defined (Q4037285)

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0754.00022.] Under consideration are two-dimensional systems of the form (1) \(\dot x=P(x,y)=y-f(x)\), \(\dot y=Q(x,y)=-x+g(x,y)\), where \(f(x)\) and \(g(x,y)\) are polynomials of degree \(n\) and \(m\), and \(n\geq m\). If \(g(x,y)=0\), this system is of the Liénard type, hence (1) can be seen as a perturbed Liénard system. This quite detailed study starts considering the possible rest points, in its dependence on the coefficients of the polynomials \(f\) and \(g\). From there the behavior of the solutions \(x(t)\), \(y(t)\) follows. The behavior near infinity is also studied, via the change of variables: \(u=1/x\), \(v=y/x\). Many graphs are given, showing the behavior of the solutions. Generic as well as non-generic cases are treated.
