Existence results for forced nonlinear periodic BVPs at resonance (Q1073992): Difference between revisions

Results concerning the existence of p-periodic solutions for systems of nonlinear differential equations at resonance, of the kind \(x''+Dx+Ag(t,x)=h(t),\) are shown in the paper. In the equation D and A are \(m\times m\) constant matrices, D being diagonal, h is a p-periodic forcing term and g is a vector field, not necessarily bounded. In particular, a classical theorem by Lazer and Leach is extended to the aforementioned systems, under the most general hypotheses. The proofs are based on the method of the topological degree (Mawhin's continuation theorem).
