Abstract

We show that certain two-dimensional differential systems can be transformed to a system of Lienard type. This enables known criteria for the existence of a centre for Lienard systems to be exploited, so extending the range of techniques which are available for proving that conditions which are known to be necessary for a centre are also sufficient.
