We are particularly interested in the existence of slowly oscillating periodic solutions when the trivial stationary state is unstable. Here the absence of symmetry of the nonlinearity prevents the use of many traditional strategies to obtain a priori estimates on the solution. Without a precise knowledge of the period of the solution, we manage to prove the forward invariance of a carefully constructed set of initial data whose properties imply the slowly oscillating character of all continuations. We prove the existence of periodic solutions by constructing a homeomorphism between our set and a convex subset of a different Banach space, thereby showing that it possesses the fixed-point property. Finally, in a singular limit of a parameter, we show that this periodic solution converges to the solution of a well-known discrete difference equation.

The second one is that we restrict our analysis to a subset of the monodromic parameter space that assures the non-existence of local curves with zero angular speed. The conclusions are that the asymptotic Dulac expansion of Π does not contain logarithmic terms, indeed it admits a formal power series expansion with a unique independent generalized Poincaré-Lyapunov quantity, which can be computed under some explicit conditions.
