Summary: | After linear differential systems in the plane, the easiest systems are quadratic polynomial differential systems in the plane. Due to their nonlinearity and their many applications, these systems have been studied by many authors. Such quadratic polynomial differential systems have been divided into ten families. Here, for two of these families, we classify all topologically distinct phase portraits in the Poincaré disc. These two families have already been studied previously, but several mistakes made there are repaired here thanks to the use of a more powerful technique. This new technique uses the invariant theory developed by the Sibirskii School, applied to differential systems, which allows to determine all the algebraic bifurcations in a relatively easy way. Even though the goal of obtaining all the phase portraits of quadratic systems for each of the ten families is not achievable using only this method, the coordination of different approaches may help us reach this goal. |
