%0 Journal Article %T Analytic varieties as limit periodic sets %A Andr¨¦ Belotto %J Mathematics %D 2011 %I arXiv %R 10.1007/s12346-012-0070-4 %X Let $f(x,y) \not\equiv 0$ be a real-analytic planar function. We show that, for almost every $R>0$ there exists an analytic 1-parameter family of vector fields $X_{\lambda}$ which has $\{f(x,y)=0\} \cap \bar{B_R((0,0))}$ as a limit periodic set. Furthermore, we show that if $f(x,y)$ is polynomial, then there exists a polynomial family with these properties. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1109.0877v2
