Melnikov functions and Bautin ideal
2001
The computation of the number of limit cycles which appear in an analytic unfolding of planar vector fields is related to the decomposition of the displacement function of this unfolding in an ideal of functions in the parameter space, called the Ideal of Bautin. On the other hand, the asymptotic of the displacement function, for 1-parameter unfoldings of hamiltonian vector fields is given by Melnikov functions which are defined as the coefficients of Taylor expansion in the parameter. It is interesting to compare these two notions and to study if the general estimations of the number of limit cycles in terms of the Bautin ideal could be reduced to the computations of Melnikov functions for…
Perturbations of symmetric elliptic Hamiltonians of degree four
2006
AbstractIn this paper four-parameter unfoldings Xλ of symmetric elliptic Hamiltonians of degree four are studied. We prove that in a compact region of the period annulus of X0 the displacement function of Xλ is sign equivalent to its principal part, which is given by a family induced by a Chebychev system; and we describe the bifurcation diagram of Xλ in a full neighborhood of the origin in the parameter space, where at most two limit cycles can exist for the corresponding systems.
Principal part of multi-parameter displacement functions
2012
This paper deals with a perturbation problem from a period annulus, for an analytic Hamiltonian system [J.-P. Françoise, Ergodic Theory Dynam. Systems 16 (1996), no. 1, 87–96 ; L. Gavrilov, Ann. Fac. Sci. Toulouse Math. (6) 14(2005), no. 4, 663–682. The authors consider the planar polynomial multi-parameter deformations and determine the coefficients in the expansion of the displacement function generated on a transversal section to the period annulus. Their first result gives a generalization to the Françoise algorithm for a one-parameter family, following [J.-P. Françoise and M. Pelletier, J. Dyn. Control Syst. 12 (2006), no. 3, 357–369. The second result expresses the principal terms in …
Nilpotence of orbits under monodromy and the length of Melnikov functions
2021
Abstract Let F ∈ ℂ [ x , y ] be a polynomial, γ ( z ) ∈ π 1 ( F − 1 ( z ) ) a non-trivial cycle in a generic fiber of F and let ω be a polynomial 1-form, thus defining a polynomial deformation d F + e ω = 0 of the integrable foliation given by F . We study different invariants: the orbit depth k , the nilpotence class n , the derivative length d associated with the couple ( F , γ ) . These invariants bind the length l of the first nonzero Melnikov function of the deformation d F + e ω along γ . We analyze the variation of the aforementioned invariants in a simple but informative example, in which the polynomial F is defined by a product of four lines. We study as well the relation of this b…
Godbillon–Vey sequence and Françoise algorithm
2019
Abstract We consider foliations given by deformations d F + ϵ ω of exact forms dF in C 2 in a neighborhood of a family of cycles γ ( t ) ⊂ F − 1 ( t ) . In 1996 Francoise gave an algorithm for calculating the first nonzero term of the displacement function Δ along γ of such deformations. This algorithm recalls the well-known Godbillon–Vey sequences discovered in 1971 for investigation of integrability of a form ω. In this paper, we establish the correspondence between the two approaches and translate some results by Casale relating types of integrability for finite Godbillon–Vey sequences to the Francoise algorithm settings.
