Tightening Poincaré–Bendixson theory after counting separately the fixed points on the boundary and interior of a planar region by Pouria Ramazi, Ming Cao, Jacquelien Scherpen

“…When $\mathcal M$ contains in general a finite number of fixed points and neither $\omega (p)$ nor $\alpha (p)$ is a closed orbit or contains just a fixed point, at least one of $\omega (p)$ and $\alpha (p)$ excludes all boundary fixed points and consists only of a number of the interior fixed points and orbits connecting them.…”
