Subharmonics of nonconvex Hamiltonian systems (Q1969088)

The author deals with the Hamiltonian system (1) \(\dot u= J\nabla H(t,u)\) where \(J= \left( \begin{smallmatrix} O &-I\\ I &O \end{smallmatrix} \right)\) is the standard symplectic matrix. Under some natural assumptions on \(H(t,u)\) the author derives the existence of subharmonic solutions for an unbounded noncovnex Hamiltonian with a bounded gradient. To this end the author uses a generalized saddle point theorem.
