Multiplicity results of periodic solutions for systems of first order delay differential equation (Q654645): Difference between revisions

By applying variational methods, the authors establish existence and multiplicity results for periodic solutions of the non-autonomous delay differential equation \[ u'(t)=-f(t,u(t-r)) \] with \(r>0\) and \(f\in C(\mathbb R^1\times \mathbb R^n,\mathbb R^n)\) satisfying \(f(t+r,z)=f(t,z)\) for all \(z\in \mathbb R^n\).
