Abstract

We provide a constructive method to obtain polynomial vector fields in ℝ3 having infinitely many limit cycles starting from polynomial vector fields in ℝ2 with a period annulus. We present two examples of polynomial vector fields in ℝ3 having infinitely many limit cycles, one of them of degree 2 and the other one of degree 12. The main tools of our method are the Melnikov integral and the Hamiltonian structure. © 2013 World Scientific Publishing Company.
