In this paper, we discuss the bifurcation of periodic orbits in planar piecewise smooth systems with discontinuities on finitely many smooth curves intersecting at the origin. We assume that the unperturbed system has either a limit cycle or a periodic annulus such that the limit cycle or each periodic orbit in the periodic annulus crosses every switching curve transversally multiple times. When the unperturbed system has a limit cycle, we give the conditions for its stability and persistence. When the unperturbed system has a periodic annulus, we obtain the expression of the first order Melnikov function and establish sufficient conditions under which limit cycles can bifurcate from the annulus. As an example, we construct a concrete nonlinear planar piecewise smooth system with three zones with 11 limit cycles bifurcated from the periodic annulus.

In this paper, by using Picard–Fuchs equations and Chebyshev criterion, we study the bifurcation of limit cycles for degenerate quadratic Hamilton systems with polycycles [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] under the perturbations of piecewise smooth polynomials with degree [Formula: see text]. Roughly speaking, for [Formula: see text], a polycycle [Formula: see text] is cyclically ordered collection of [Formula: see text] saddles together with orbits connecting them in specified order. The discontinuity is on the line [Formula: see text]. If the first order Melnikov function is not equal to zero identically, it is proved that the upper bounds of the number of limit cycles bifurcating from each of the period annuli with the boundary [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are respectively [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] (taking into account the multiplicity).

Like for smooth systems, a typical method to produce multiple limit cycles for a given piecewise smooth planar system is via homoclinic bifurcation. Previous works only focused on limit cycles that bifurcate from homoclinic orbits of piecewise-linear systems. In this paper, we consider for the first time the same problem for a class of general nonlinear piecewise smooth systems. By introducing the Dulac map in a small neighborhood of the hyperbolic saddle, we obtain the approximation of the Poincaré map for the nonsmooth homoclinic orbit. Then, we give conditions for the stability of the homoclinic orbit and conditions under which one or two limit cycles bifurcate from it. As an example, we construct a nonlinear piecewise smooth system with two limit cycles that bifurcate from a homoclinic orbit.

We establish a theorem on bifurcation of limit cycles from a focus boundary equilibrium of an impacting system, which is universally applicable to prove the bifurcation of limit cycles from focus boundary equilibria in other types of piecewise-smooth systems, such as Filippov systems and sweeping processes. Specifically, we assume that one of the subsystems of the piecewise-smooth system under consideration admits a focus equilibrium that lie on the switching manifold at the bifurcation value of the parameter. In each of the three cases, we derive a linearized system which is capable of concluding the occurrence of a finite-time stable limit cycle from the above-mentioned focus equilibrium when the parameter crosses the bifurcation value. Examples illustrate how conditions of our theorems lead to closed-form formulas for the coefficients of the linearized system.

Limit Cycle Bifurcation

In this paper, we present two kinds of generalized double homoclinic loops in planar piecewise smooth systems. For their stability a criterion is provided. Under nondegenerate conditions, we prove that for each case there are at most five limit cycles which can be bifurcated from the generalized double homoclinic loop. Especially, we construct two concrete systems to show that the upper bound can be achieved in both cases.
