Limit Cycles from Hopf Bifurcation in Nongeneric Quadratic Reversible Systems with Piecewise Perturbations

In this paper, we consider a nongeneric quadratic reversible system with piecewise polynomial perturbations. We use the expansion of the first order Melnikov function to obtain the maximal number of small-amplitude limit cycles produced by Hopf bifurcation in the perturbed systems.
