Periodic solutions of Duffing's equations with superquadratic potential

From MaRDI portal





The paper is devoted to the study of harmonic and subharmonic solutions of the second order scalar nonlinear Duffing's equation \(x+g(x)=p(t,x,x')\), where \(g\) and \(p\) are continuous functions with \(p\) bounded and periodic in the first variable and \(g\) satisfying the assumption \(\lim_{| x|\to\infty} g(x)\text{sign}(x)=+\infty\). The existence of infinitely many harmonic and subharmonic solutions if \(p=p(t)\) and the potential \(G(x)\) of \(g(x)\) satisfies certain conditions of superquadratic growth at \(\infty\) is proved. Various preceding theorems are improved and sharpened as the new existence result can be applied to situations in which the more classical superlinear growth condition \(g(x)/x\to\infty\) (as \(| x|\to\infty\)) is not satisfied.
