Abstract: The Abel differential equation y=p(x)y3+q(x)y2 with meromorphic coefficients p,q is said to have a center on [a,b] if all its solutions, with the initial value y(a) small enough, satisfy the condition y(a)=y(b). The problem of giving conditions on (p,q,a,b) implying a center for the Abel equation is analogous to the classical Poincar'e Center-Focus problem for plane vector fields. Following [3,4,8,9] we say that Abel equation has a "parametric center" if for each varepsiloninmathbbC the equation y=p(x)y3+varepsilonq(x)y2 has a center. In the present paper we use recent results of [15,6} to show show that for a polynomial Abel equation parametric center implies strong "composition" restriction on p and q. In particular, we show that for degp,qleq10 parametric center is equivalent to the so-called "Composition Condition" (CC) on p,q. Second, we study trigonometric Abel equation, and provide a series of examples, generalizing a recent remarkable example given in [8], where certain moments of p,q vanish while (CC) is violated.
