Abstract

Establishing the existence of invariant sets is an important problem for understanding the dynamics of differential systems. Regarding to the periodic orbits there are few theories which allow the study of its existence, non-existence and its stability for smooth differential systems in arbitrary dimensions. One of those is the averaging theory. On the other hand, the mathematical field which study the discontinuous dynamical systems, called Filippov Systems, is a subject that has been developing at a very fast pace in recent years. This field has become certainly one of the common frontiers between Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, and other related sciences. The purpose of this project consists in developing the averaging theory and its applications for studying the periodic solutions of nonsmooth differential systems either continuous or discontinuous in arbitrary dimension. The main tools we shall use are Brouwer degree theory and regularization process for discontinuous systems. (AU)
