Abstract

We investigate the maximum number of limit cycles bifurcating from the period annulus of a family of cubic polynomial differential centers when it is perturbed inside the class of all cubic piecewise smooth polynomials. The family considered is the unique family of weight-homogeneous polynomial differential systems of weight-degree 2 with a center. When the switching line is x=0 or y=0, we obtain the sharp bounds of the number of limit cycles for the perturbed systems by using the first order averaging method. Our results indicate that non-smooth systems can have more limit cycles than smooth ones, and the switching lines play an important role in the dynamics of non-smooth systems.
