Abstract: We prove the existence of small amplitude periodic solutions, with strongly irrational frequency $om$ close to one, for completely resonant nonlinear wave equations. We provide multiplicity results for both monotone and nonmonotone nonlinearities. For $om$ close to one we prove the existence of a large number $N_{o}m$ of $2pislashom$-periodic in time solutions $u_1,\mathrm{...},u_n,\mathrm{...},u_N$: $N_{o}mo+infty$ as $omo1$. The minimal period of the $n$-th solution $u_n$ is proved to be $2pislashnom$. The proofs are based on a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction and variational arguments.

Review text

A variational principle is proposed to find small amplitude periodic solutions of the semilinear wave equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions \[ u_{tt} - u_{xx} + f(u) = 0, \quad u(t,0) = u(t,\pi) = 0, \] when \(f(0) = f'(0) = 0.\) The corresponding solutions are periodic solutions with a fixed period which branch off the infinite-dimensional null space of the linear part. This variational approach is based upon a variational Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction followed by a delicate mountain pass type argument. Examples dealing with \(f(u) = au^p\) are treated, with \(p\) an integer.
