Abstract

In this paper, we construct two classes of planar polynomial Hamiltonian systems having a center at the origin, and obtain the lower bounds for the number of critical periods for these systems. For polynomial potential systems of degree n, we provide a lower bound of n-2 for the number of critical periods, and for polynomial systems of degree n, we acquire a lower bound of n2/2+n-5/2 when n is odd and n2/2-2 when n is even for the number of critical periods. To the best of our knowledge, these lower bounds are new, moreover the latter one is twice the existing results up to the dominant term.
