Abstract: Symmetries are ubiquitous in a wide range of nonlinear systems. Particularly in systems whose dynamics are determined by a Lagrangian or Hamiltonian function. For hybrid systems which possess a continuous-time dynamics determined by a Lagrangian function, with a cyclic variable, the degrees of freedom for the corresponding hybrid Lagrangian system can be reduced by means of a method known as extit{hybrid Routhian reduction}. In this paper we study sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic orbits in hybrid Routhian systems which also exhibit time-reversal symmetry. Likewise, we explore some stability aspects of such orbits through the characterization of the eigenvalues for the corresponding linearized Poincar'e map. Finally, we apply the results to find periodic solutions in underactuated hybrid Routhian control systems.
