Nonlinear multivalued Duffing systems (Q2414005)

Using the fixed point technique, the paper studies the existence of solutions for the nonlinear Duffing systems subject to multivalued perturbations as follows \[\left\{ \begin{array}{l} -a(u'(t))'+r(t)\vert u'(t)\vert^{p-2}u'(t)\in F(t,u(t)) \;\;a. a. \;t\in [0,b] \\ u(0)=u(b)=0, 1<p<+\infty \end{array}\right. \] where \(a: \mathbb{R}^N\to \mathbb{R}^N\) is a monotone homeomorphism (e. g., \(a(y)=\vert y\vert^{p-2} y, y\in \mathbb{R}^N\)) and the multivalued perturbation \(F\) can be convex valued or nonconvex valued. The authors also prove a relaxation theorem: the solutions set of the nonconvex problem is dense in the one of the convex problem.
