Multiple positive periodic solutions for a class of nonlinear functional differential equations (Q2378778)

The authors obtain some multiplicity results for periodic solutions of a family of periodic functional differential equations of the form \[ x'(t)=-a(t,x(t))\cdot x(t)+f(t,x(t-\tau_1(t,x(t))),\dots,x(t-\tau_n(t,x(t)))). \] The main tool used is the Avery-Henderson fixed point theorem in cones.
