Description

In this paper, we study the expansion of the first Melnikov function for general near-Hamiltonian systems near a heteroclinic loop with two cusps of order 1 or 2, obtain the formulas for the first coefficients appearing in the expansion, and establish some bifurcation theorems on the number of limit cycles. We also give some application examples
