Lyapunov, Weinstein and Moser obtained remarkable theorems giving sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic orbits emanating from an equilibrium point of a differential system with a first integral. Using averaging theory of first order we established in [1] a similar result for a differential system without assuming the existence of a first integral. Now, using averaging theory of the second order, we extend our result to the case when the first order average is identically zero. Our result can be interpreted as a kind of degenerated Hopf bifurcation.

Here we study 3-dimensional Lotka–Volterra systems. It is known that some of these differential systems can have at least four periodic orbits bifurcating from one of their equilibrium points. Here we prove that there are some of these differential systems exhibiting at least six periodic orbits bifurcating from one of their equilibrium points. We remark that these systems with such six periodic orbits are non-competitive Lotka–Volterra systems. The proof is done using the algorithm that we provide for computing the periodic solutions that bifurcate from a zero-Hopf equilibrium based in the averaging theory of third order. This algorithm can be applied to any differential system having a zero-Hopf equilibrium.

The purpose of the present paper is to study the presence of bifurcations of zero-Hopf type at a generalized Genesio differential equation. More precisely, by transforming such differential equation in a first-order differential system in the three-dimensional space R3, we are able to prove the existence of a zero-Hopf bifurcation from which periodic trajectories appear close to the equilibrium point located at the origin when the parameters a and c are zero and b is positive.

AbstractThe relation between conceptual analysis and empirical observations when ascribing or denying concepts and beliefs to non-human animals is not straightforward. In order to reflect on this relation, I focus on two theoretical proposals (Davidson’s and Allen’s) and one empirical case (vervet monkeys’ alarm calls), the three of which are permanently discussed and considered in the literature on animal cognition. First, I review briefly Davidson’s arguments for denying thought to non-linguistic animals. Second, I review Allen’s criteria for ascribing concepts to creatures capable of correcting their discriminatory powers by taking into account their previous errors. Allen affirms that this is an empirical proposal which offers good reasons, but not necessary or sufficient conditions, for concept attribution. Against Allen, I argue that his important proposal is not an empirical, but a conceptual one. Third, I resort to vervet monkeys to show that Allen’s criteria, and not Davidson’s, are very relevant for ascribing first-order and denying second-order beliefs to this species and thus make sense of the idea of animal cognition.

AbstractIn this paper, a new, variational concept of asymptotical stability of zero solution to an ordinary differential system of the second order, considered in Sobolev space, is presented. Sufficient conditions for an asymptotical stability in a variational sense with respect to initial condition and functional parameter (control) are given. Relation to the classical asymptotical stability is illustrated.

Self Knowledge

According to the method of transparency, genuine self-knowledge is the outcome of an inference from world to mind. A. Byrne (2018) has developed a theory in which the method of transparency consists in following an epistemic rule in order to form self-verifying second-order beliefs. In this paper, I argue that Byrne’s theory does not establish sufficient conditions for having self-knowledge of first-order beliefs. Examining a case of self-deception, I strive to show that following such a rule might not result in self-knowledge when one is involved in rational deliberation. In the case under consideration, one precisely comes to believe that one believes that p without coming to believe that p. The justification for one’s not forming the belief that p with its distinctive causal pattern in mental life and behaviour, is that one already had the unconscious belief that not-p, a belief that is not sensitive to the principles governing theoretical and practical reasoning.

In this paper, we first classify all centers of a class of quasi-homogeneous polynomial differential systems of degree 5. Then we extend this kind of systems to a generalized polynomial differential system and provide the necessary and sufficient conditions to have a center at the origin. Furthermore, we study the Poincaré bifurcation for its perturbed system as it has a center at the origin, find the Poincaré cyclicity up to first order of ε.

We study the number of limit cycles of polynomial differential systems of the form where g 1 , f 1 , g 2 and f 2 are polynomials of a given degree. Note that when g 1 ( x )= f 1 ( x )=0, we obtain the generalized polynomial Liénard differential systems. We provide an accurate upper bound of the maximum number of limit cycles that the above system can have bifurcating from the periodic orbits of the linear centre , using the averaging theory of first and second order.

In this paper, new oscillation conditions for the 2nd-order noncanonical neutral differential equation (a0t((ut+a1tug0t)′)β)′+a2tuβg1t=0, where t≥t0, are established. Using Riccati substitution and comparison with an equation of the first-order, we obtain criteria that ensure the oscillation of the studied equation. Furthermore, we complement and improve the previous results in the literature.

In light of the previous recent studies by Jaume Llibre et al. that dealt with the finite cycles of generalized differential Kukles polynomial systems using the first- and second-order mean theorem such as (Nonlinear Anal., 74, 1261–1271, 2011) and (J. Dyn. Control Syst., vol. 21, 189–192, 2015), in this work, we provide upper bounds for the maximum number of limit cycles bifurcating from the periodic orbits of Hamiltonian system using the averaging theory of first order.
