Local phase portraits through the Newton diagram of a vector field (Q887464)

The authors study the behavior of the integral curves of the analytic vector field \[ \dot x = F(x), \, x \in \mathbb{R}^2 \] in a neighborhood of its singular point. This problem has a long and interesting history, going back to Poincaré. The most complicated and most interesting case is when the linear part of the vector field at the singular point is identically null, it can be studied using the blow-up technique (developed by Dumortier). In this case, the authors present an algorithm that allows to obtain the local phase portrait near the singular point (e.g., the existence of characteristic orbits and separatrices) using the first quasi-homogeneous terms of the vector field.
