Oscillations in nonlinear feedback systems.It is shown how some basic ideas from system theory and differential geometry can be used to establish new results concerning the existance of oscillations for autonomous feedback systems. The conditions obtained are expressed in terms of the frequency response characteristic of the open-loop system and certain general properties of the nonlinearity.
