摘要

In the present paper, we investigate the maximum number of limit cycles bifurcating from the period annulus of a cubic isochronous center when it is perturbed by piecewise polynomials of arbitrary degree n with the switching line \(x=0\) x = 0 . By analyzing the number of zeros of the first order Melnikov function with a new Chebyshev criterion in [3], we show that the sharp upper bound on the number of limit cycles for the perturbed systems is \(2n+1\) 2 n + 1 for \(n\ge 1\) n 1 .
