Mares are notorious for having inconsistant heat cycles, especially young fillies and a mare over the age of 15. TYPICALLY, a mare is in heat for 4 to 8 days, depending on the time of year and whether or not a stallion is present (so IN heat about a week on average) and OUT of heat for 14 to 16 days (about 2 weeks on average) In the late winter or early spring, a mare may be in heat the full 8 days while in mid-summer through winter only about 4 days, so how many times per year she is in heat can vary greatly.
How would you trick a mare to go into heat?
You can manipulate a mare's estrus (heat) cycle several ways. Put the mare under lights early in the winter to fool her body into thinking it's spring a few weeks earlier.

A mare that doesn't have normal cycles can sometimes be encouraged to come into estrus sooner with exposure to a stallion.

If a mare is in heat around a stallion she may squat and urinate showing she is ready to breed.
Is there anything to do so a mare won't come into heat?
The only reasonable way to "stop" a mare from going into heat, is to keep her with another mare, not a gelding or stallion. having a male around even if they are cut, will encourage the mares cycles to begin. But keeping her away from males may not stop it all together, but it will at least make them less severe.
