Lyapunov stability of elliptic periodic solutions of nonlinear damped equations (Q451003)

This paper contains some results on the stability of periodic solutions for equations of the type \[ x''+h(t)x'+g(t,x)=0, \] where \(h\) and \(g(\cdot ,x)\) are \(2\pi\)-periodic and \[ \int_0^{2\pi} h(t)\,dt =0. \] Some of the known techniques for \(h=0\) are adapted to this setting.
