    In this paper, the authors study the following second-order Hamiltonian systems \[ \begin{cases} \ddot{u}(t)+A(t)u(t)+\nabla F(t,u(t))=0,\\ u(0)-u(T)=\dot{u}(0)-\dot{u}(T)=0, \end{cases}\tag{PS} \] where \(A \in C ([0, T],\mathbb{R}^{N^2})\) is a symmetric matrix valued function, \(F : [0, T ]\times \mathbb{R}^N \rightarrow \mathbb{R}\) is subquadratic, even in \(u\) and satisfies the Ahmad-Lazer-Paul condition. By using the dual fountain theorem due to \textit{T. Bartsch} and \textit{M. Willem} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 123, No. 11, 3555--3561 (1995; Zbl 0848.35039)], the authors obtain the existence of infinitely many periodic solutions for systems (PS).
