Abstract: | In this paper we study the limit cycles bifurcating from a nonisolated zero-Hopf equilibrium of a differential system in R3. The unfolding of the vector fields with a non-isolated zero-Hopf equilibrium is a family with at least three parameters. By using the averaging theory of the second order, explicit conditions are given for the existence of one or two limit cycles bifurcating from such a zero-Hopf equilibrium. To our knowledge, this is the first result on bifurcations from a non-isolated zero-Hopf equilibrium. This result is applied to study three-dimensional generalized Lotka-Volterra systems in [3]. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a non-isolated zero-Hopf equilibrium of this system are given, and it is shown that two limit cycles can be bifurcated from the non-isolated zero-Hopf equilibrium under a general small perturbation of three-dimensional generalized Lotka-Volterra systems. |
