The reflecting function and the small parameter method (Q952726)

This paper combines the method of reflecting function and the perturbation method to obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of a family of periodic solutions of the system \[ \dot x= P(t)x+ f(t)+ \nu\varphi(t, x), \] where \(P(t)\) is a continuous \(\omega\)-periodic \(n\times n\) matrix; \(f(t)\) and \(\varphi(t, x)\) are continuous \(\omega\)-periodic vector functions with respect to \(t\), and \(\varphi(t, x)\) is continuously differentiable with respect to the components of the vector \(x\); \(\nu\) is a small parameter.
