Abstract
From the beginning of this century more than thirty papers have been published studying the limit cycles of the discontinuous piecewise linear differential systems with two pieces separated by a straight line, but it remains open the following question: what is the maximum number of limit cycles that this class of differential systems can have? Here we prove that when one of the linear differential systems has a center, real or virtual, then the discontinuous piecewise linear differential system has at most two limit cycles.
