    The authors study the problem of the existence and multiplicity of positive periodic solutions to the scalar ODE \[ u + \lambda a(t) g(u) = 0,\quad \lambda > 0, \] where \(g (x)\) is a positive function, superlinear at zero and sublinear at infinity, and \(a (t)\) is a T-periodic and sign indefinite weight with negative mean value. Under some conditions on g, the authors show the nonexistence of solutions for small \(\lambda\) and, using critical point theory, show the existence of at least two positive T-periodic solutions when \(\lambda\) is large.
