Abstract

The first goal of this work was to study structural stability problems in the classes of piecewise smooth and piecewise smooth refractive vector fields that admit a first integral that leaves invariant any two-dimensional sphere centered at the origin. Stability conditions and generic one-parameter families in the two-dimensional sphere were used to prove the results that establish the necessary conditions for structural stability in these classes. Furthermore, we study the center-focus and the cyclicity problems in the classes of smooth and piecewise smooth vector fields that admit a first integral that leaves invariant any two-dimensional spheres centered at the origin. We prove that linear systems into these classes do not admit limit cycle on invariant spheres. Finally, we obtain 4 small amplitude limit cycles bifurcating from a weak-focus of a (smooth) quadratic system defined on the unit sphere and we also show that there exists a piecewise smooth quadratic perturbation such that at least 10 small amplitude limit cycles bifurcate from a smooth quadratic center on this sphere.
