The Abel differential equation y′=p(x)y2+q(x)y3 with p,q∈R[x] is said to have a center on a segment [a,b] if all its solutions, with the initial value y(a) small enough, satisfy the condition y(b)=y(a). The problem of description of conditions implying that the Abel equation has a center may be interpreted as a simplified version of the classical Center-Focus problem of Poincaré. The Abel equation is said to have a “parametric center” if for each ε∈R the equation y′=p(x)y2+εq(x)y3 has a center. In this paper we show that the Abel equation has a parametric center if and only if the antiderivatives P=∫p(x)dx, Q=∫q(x)dx satisfy the equalities P=P∘W, Q=Q​∘W for some polynomials P, Q​, and W such that W(a)=W(b). We also show that the last condition is necessary and sufficient for the “generalized moments” ∫ab​PidQ and ∫ab​QidP to vanish for all i geq0.
