For the processes described by dynamical systems, closed trajectories of dynamical systems are in line with periodic oscillations. Therefore, there is a considerable interest in describing the bifurcations of the generation of closed trajectories from equilibrium when the parameters change. In typical one-parameter and two-parameter families of smooth dynamical systems on a plane, closed trajectories can be generated only from equilibrium – weak focus. In mathematical modeling in the theory of automatic control, in mechanics and in other applications, piecewise smooth dynamical systems are often used. For them, there are other bifurcations of the generation of closed trajectories from equilibrium. The paper describes one of them, which is a typical family of dynamical systems specified by a piecewise smooth vector field on a two-dimensional manifold depending on two small parameters. It is assumed that for zero values of the parameters the vector field has a singular point O on the line of discontinuity of the field, and the point O is stable; in one half-neighborhood of the point O the field coincides with a smooth vector field for which the point O is a weak focus with positive (negative) first Lyapunov value, and in the other half-neighborhood it coincides with a smooth vector field directed at the points of the line of discontinuity inside the first of the semi-neighborhoods. The paper describes bifurcations in the neighborhood of the point O as the parameters change, in particular, indicating the regions of the parameters for which the vector field has a stable closed trajectory.
