Abstract

We consider the family of polynomial differential systems x' = x + (αy - βx) (αx2 - bxy + αy2)n, y' = y - (βy + αx) (αx2 - bxy + αy2)n, where α, b, ɑ, β are real constants and n is positive integer. We prove that these systems are Liouville integrable. Moreover, we determine sufficient conditions for the existence of an explicit algebraic or non-algebraic limit cycle. Examples exhibiting the applicability of our result are introduced.
