Abstract

In this paper we study the center problem for polynomial Liénard systems of degree n with damping of degree n. Computing the focal values we find the center conditions for such systems for \(n=5\) and using modular arithmetics and Gröbner bases for \(n=6\). We also give some center conditions for polynomial Liénard systems of degree n with damping of degree n.
