Forced second order conservative systems with periodic nonlinearity

From MaRDI portal





We consider the problem \[ (*)\quad (M(t)u')'+Au+D_ uF(t,u)=h(t),\quad u(0)-u(T)=u'(0)-u'(T)=0, \] where M: \([0,T]\to S({\mathbb{R}}^ n,{\mathbb{R}}^ n)\) is a continuous mapping in the space \(S({\mathbb{R}}^ n,{\mathbb{R}}^ n)\) of symmetric real (n\(\times n)\)-matrices such that, for some \(\mu >0\) and all \((t,v)\in [0,T]\times {\mathbb{R}}^ n\), \((M(t)v| v)\geq \mu | v|^ 2\), \(A\in S({\mathbb{R}}^ n,{\mathbb{R}}^ n)\), F: \([0,T]\times {\mathbb{R}}^ n\to {\mathbb{R}}\) is continuous and bounded and \(D_ uF:\quad [0,T]\times {\mathbb{R}}^ n\to {\mathbb{R}}^ n\) exists, is continuous and is bounded, and \(h\in L^ 1(0,T;{\mathbb{R}}^ n).\) We shall study the existence and multiplicity of the solutions of (*) using various methods of critical point theory. The existence of at least one solution will be proved and the existence of more solutions will be obtained.
