Abstract

A concrete numerical example of Z3-equivariant planar perturbed Hamiltonian vector field of fifth degree having 23 limit cycles and a configuration of compound eyes are given, by using the bifurcation theory of planar dynamical systems and the method of detection functions. It gives rise to the conclusion: the Hilbert number H(5) ≥ 23 for the second part of Hilbert's 16th problem.
