Abstract

In this paper we are dealing with planar piecewise smooth vector fields defined in two zones. In each one of such zones takes place a smooth vector field and the switching manifold is a curve passing through the origin. The first one of these smooth vector fields has a saddle-node equilibrium at the origin, while the second one is transversal to the switching manifold at the origin. We will consider a singular perturbation of this scenario, involving a non-hyperbolic equilibrium considered over the switching manifold. With this purpose, we regularize the piecewise smooth vector field using the Sotomayor-Teixeira method. After it, the singular perturbation theory is considered and a unique non-normally hyperbolic point is obtained and a sequence of blow-ups is considered in order to completely desingularize this point and understand the dynamics around it.
