Periodic solutions of impulsive differential equations with piecewise alternately advanced and retarded argument of generalized type (Q2136360)

The paper investigates the nonlinear vector impulsive system \[ \dot{y}(t)=A(t)y(t)+f(t,y(t), y(\gamma(t))), \] \[ \Delta y(t)=J_k(y(t_k^-)), t=t_k, k\in Z, \] where \(\gamma(t)\) is a piecewise constant argument of mixed type (alternatively delayed or advanced). The existence and uniqueness of periodic and subharmonic solutions are obtained by applying the Poincaré operator and fixed point theory.
