Centers of discontinuous piecewise smooth quasi-homogeneous polynomial differential systems

In this paper we investigate the center problem for the discontinuous piecewise smooth quasi-homogeneous but non-homogeneous polynomial differential systems. First, we provide sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of a center in the discontinuous piecewise smooth quasi-homogeneous polynomial differential systems. Moreover, these centers are global, and the period function of their periodic orbits is monotonic. Second, we characterize the centers of the discontinuous piecewise smooth quasi-homogeneous cubic and quartic polynomial differential systems
