Abstract
In this paper, we consider the perturbations of two Hamiltonian centers wit h Hamiltonians H(x, y) = 1/2n x(2n) + 1/2m y(2m), H(x, y) = 1/2 y(2) + 1/2 x(2) + 1/2m x(2 m), respectively. For the former, we give the greatest number of isolated zeros (taking into account their multiplicity) of a class of Abelian integrals r elated to the corresponding perturbed Hamiltonian systems, and consequently obtain the indicated number of limit cycles from the perturbations of the corresponding Hamiltonian center in the class of differential polynomial sy stems. For the latter, we give the relative cohomology decomposition of the corresponding polynomial one form, and so obtain an estimate number of iso lated zeros of the corresponding Abelian integral. We also study the maximu m number of limit cycles that the perturbed systems can have surrounding a singular point.
