Abstract

By means of planar polynomial systems topologically equivalent to the van der Pol system we demonstrate an approach to construct algebraic transversal ovals forming a parameter depending Poincaré-Bendixson annulus which contains a unique limit cycle for the full parameter domain. The inner boundary consists of the zero-level set of a special Dulac-Cherkas function which implies the uniqueness of the limit cycle. For the construction of the outer boundary we present a corresponding procedure
