Polynomial Differential Systems in $$\mathbb {R}^3$$ R 3 Having Invariant Weighted Homogeneous Surfaces

Abstract

In this paper we give the normal form of all polynomial differential systems in $$\mathbb {R}^3$$ having a weighted homogeneous surface $$f=0$$ as an invariant algebraic surface and characterize among these systems those having a Darboux invariant constructed uniquely using this invariant surface. Using the obtained results we give some examples of stratified vector fields, when $$f=0$$ is a singular surface. We also apply the obtained results to study the Vallis system, which is related to the so-called El Nino atmospheric phenomenon, when it has a cone as an invariant algebraic surface, performing a dynamical analysis of the flow of this system restricted to the invariant cone and providing a stratification for this singular surface.
