Abstract

The creation or destruction of a crossing limit cycle when a sliding segment changes its stability, is known as pseudo-Hopf bifurcation. In this paper, under generic conditions, we find an unfolding for such bifurcation, and we prove the existence and uniqueness of a crossing limit cycle for this family.
