In this paper, we first present some general theorems on bifurcation of limit cycles in near-Hamiltonian systems with a nilpotent saddle or a nilpotent cusp. Then we apply the theorems to study the number of limit cycles for some polynomial Liénard systems with a nilpotent saddle or a nilpotent cusp, and obtain some new estimations on the number of limit cycles of these systems.

In this article, we study the limit cycle bifurcation of a Liénard system of type (5,4) with a heteroclinic loop passing through a hyperbolic saddle and a nilpotent saddle. We study the least upper bound of the number of limit cycles bifurcated from the periodic annulus inside the heteroclinic loop by a new algebraic criterion. We also prove at least three limit cycles will bifurcate and six kinds of different distributions of these limit cycles are given. The methods we use and the results we obtain are new.

In this paper, we study the number of bifurcated limit cycles from near-Hamiltonian systems where the corresponding Hamiltonian system has a double homoclinic loop passing through a hyperbolic saddle surrounded by a heteroclinic loop with a hyperbolic saddle and a nilpotent saddle, and obtain some new results on the lower bound of the maximal number of limit cycles for these systems. In particular, we study the bifurcation of limit cycles of the following system [Formula: see text] as an application of our results, where [Formula: see text] is a polynomial of degree five.

We consider a class of discontinuous Liénard systems and study the number of limit cycles bifurcated from the origin when parameters vary. We establish a method of studying cyclicity of the system at the origin. As an application, we discuss some discontinuous Liénard systems of special form and study the cyclicity near the origin.

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).

In this paper, we consider bifurcation of limit cycles in near-Hamiltonian systems. A new method is developed to study the analytical property of the Melnikov function near the origin for such systems. Based on the new method, a computationally efficient algorithm is established to systematically compute the coefficients of Melnikov function. Moreover, we consider the case that the Hamiltonian function of the system depends on parameters, in addition to the coefficients involved in perturbations, which generates more limit cycles in the neighborhood of the origin. The results are applied to a quadratic system with cubic perturbations to show that the system can have five limit cycles in the vicinity of the origin.

In this paper, we study the asymptotic expansion of the first order Melnikov function near a 3-polycycle connecting a cusp (of order one or two) to two hyperbolic saddles for a near-Hamiltonian system in the plane. The formulas for the first coefficients of the expansion are given as well as the method of bifurcation of limit cycles. Then we use the results to study two Hamiltonian systems with this 3-polycycle and determine the number and distribution of limit cycles that can bifurcate from the perturbed systems. Moreover, a sharp upper bound for the number of limit cycles bifurcated from the whole periodic annulus is found when there is a cusp of order one.
