We show that a planar slow–fast piecewise-linear (PWL) system with three zones admits limit cycles that share a lot of similarity with van der Pol canards, in particular an explosive growth. Using phase-space compactification, we show that these quasi-canard cycles are strongly related to a bifurcation at infinity. Furthermore, we investigate a limiting case in which we show the existence of a continuum of canard homoclinic connections that coexist for a single-parameter value and with amplitude ranging from an order of ε to an order of 1, a phenomenon truly associated with the non-smooth character of this system and which we call super-explosion .

In this paper, a possible degeneration of the focus-center-limit cycle bifurcation for piecewise smooth continuous systems is analyzed. The case of continuous piecewise linear systems with two zones is considered, and the coexistence of two limit cycles for certain values of parameters is justified. Finally, the Chua's circuit is shown to exhibit the analyzed bifurcation. The obtained bifurcation set in the parameter plane is similar to the degenerate Hopf bifurcation for differentiable systems.

Planar symmetrical continuous piecewise linear vector fields with three zones are thoroughly analyzed. Special emphasis is placed on their oscillatory behavior. The study is made by using a Van der Pol canonical form which captures the most interesting dynamics and minimizes the number of parameters to be dealt with. This work is a continuation of a previous paper [Freire et al., 1998] and uses the same approach and techniques.

We investigate Newton-type optimization methods for solving piecewise linear systems (PLSs) with nondegenerate coefficient matrix. Such systems arise, for example, from the numerical solution of linear complementarity problem, which is useful to model several learning and optimization problems. In this letter, we propose an effective damped Newton method, PLS-DN, to find the exact (up to machine precision) solution of nondegenerate PLSs. PLS-DN exhibits provable semiiterative property, that is, the algorithm converges globally to the exact solution in a finite number of iterations. The rate of convergence is shown to be at least linear before termination. We emphasize the applications of our method in modeling, from a novel perspective of PLSs, some statistical learning problems such as box-constrained least squares, elitist Lasso (Kowalski & Torreesani, 2008 ), and support vector machines (Cortes & Vapnik, 1995 ). Numerical results on synthetic and benchmark data sets are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of PLS-DN on these problems.
