New approach to study the van der Pol equation for large damping

We present a new approach to establish the existence of a unique limit cycle for the van der Pol equation in case of large damping. It is connected with the bifurcation of a stable hyperbolic limit cycle from a closed curve composed of two heteroclinic orbits and of two segments of a straight line...
