This paper concerns two-dimensional Filippov systems --- ordinary differential equations that are discontinuous on one-dimensional switching manifolds. In the situation that a stable focus transitions to an unstable focus by colliding with a switching manifold as parameters are varied, a simple sufficient condition for a unique local limit cycle to be created is established. If this condition is violated, three nested limit cycles may be created simultaneously. The result is achieved by constructing a Poincare map and generalising analytical arguments that have been employed for continuous systems. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of pseudo-equilibria (equilibria of sliding motion on the switching manifold) are also determined. For simplicity only piecewise-linear systems are considered.
For many physical systems the transition from a stationary solution to sustained small amplitude oscillations corresponds to a Hopf bifurcation. For systems involving impacts, thresholds, switches, or other abrupt events, however, this transition can
Boundary equilibria bifurcation (BEB) arises in piecewise-smooth systems when an equilibrium collides with a discontinuity set under parameter variation. Singularly perturbed BEB refers to a bifurcation arising in singular perturbation problems which
The leading-order approximation to a Filippov system $f$ about a generic boundary equilibrium $x^*$ is a system $F$ that is affine one side of the boundary and constant on the other side. We prove $x^*$ is exponentially stable for $f$ if and only if
We consider smooth systems limiting as $epsilon to 0$ to piecewise-smooth (PWS) systems with a boundary-focus (BF) bifurcation. After deriving a suitable local normal form, we study the dynamics for the smooth system with $0 < epsilon ll 1$ using a c
We describe combinatorial approaches to the question of whether families of real matrices admit pairs of nonreal eigenvalues passing through the imaginary axis. When the matrices arise as Jacobian matrices in the study of dynamical systems, these con
