For the polynomial differential system x˙ = −y, y˙ = x+Qn(x; y), where Qn(x; y) is a homogeneous polynomial of degree n there are the following two conjectures done in 1999. (1) Is it true that the previous system for n ≥ 2 has a center at the origin if and only if its vector field is symmetric about one of the coordinate axes? (2) Is it true that the origin is an isochronous center of the previous system with the exception of the linear center only if the system has even degree? We prove both conjectures for all n odd.
