Abstract:
 This article presents a recursive formula for computing the n-th
 singular point values of a class of 4-dimensional  autonomous systems,
 and establishes the algebraic equivalence between focal values and singular
 point values. The formula is linear and then avoids complicated integrating
 operations, therefore the calculation can be carried out by computer algebra
 system such as Maple. As an application of the formula, bifurcation analysis
 is made for a quadratic system with a Hopf equilibrium, which can have three
 small limit cycles around an equilibrium point. The theory and  methodology
 developed in this paper can be used for higher-dimensional systems.
