Abstract

In this paper, we present a bifurcation analysis for planar nilpotent reversible systems with an equilibrium point located at the origin. We study candidates for the universal unfoldings of the codimension-one non-degenerate cases, as well as a pair of codimension-two degenerate cases, and a codimension-three degenerate case, where a rich bifurcation scenario is pointed out.
