Boundedness of solutions for sublinear reversible systems (Q5894867)

The author considers the following second-order differential equation \[ x''+ f(x)x'+ \varphi_p(x)= e(t),\tag{1} \] where \(f(x)\in C^3(\mathbb{R})\) is odd, \(\varphi_p(u)= |u|^{p-2} u\), \(1< p< 2\), \(e(t)\in C^3(S^1)\) is odd and \(1\)-periodic, and \(S^1= \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}\). Sufficiently conditions for the boundedness of all solutions of (1) are derived.
