Existence and multiplicity of periodic solution for non-autonomous second-order systems with linear nonlinearity (Q707226)

The purpose of this paper is to study the existence and multiplicity of periodic solution for the following nonautonomous second-order systems \[ \ddot u(t)=\nabla F\bigl(t,u(t)\bigr)\text{ a.e. } t\in [0,T],\quad u(0)-u(T)=\dot u(0)-\dot u(T)=0. \] Some new existence and multiplicity theorems are obtained by using least action principle and the minimum method.
