We will address the problem of determining the existence and asymptotic stability of a non-trivial periodic orbit in dynamical systems described by polynomial vector fields. To this end, we will lean upon the celebrated results of Borg, Olech and Hartman and newer results of Giesl, who all employ the concept of contraction for this purpose. Importantly, we formulate a numerically tractable algebraic test. The developed algorithm is illustrated in a numerical example.
