Abstract: In this paper we study the existence of multiple solutions for the non-Abelian Chern--Simons--Higgs (NimesN)-system: [ Delta u_i=lambdaleft(sum_{j=1}^Nsum_{k=1}^N K_{kj}K_{ji} e^{u_j} e^{u_k}-sum_{j=1}^N K_{ji} e^{u_j} ight)+4pisum_{j=1}^{n_i}delta_{p_{ij}},quad i=1,dots, N; ] over a doubly periodic domain Omega, with coupling matrix K given by the Cartan matrix of SU(N+1), (see eqref{k1} below). Here, lambda>0 is the coupling parameter, deltap is the Dirac measure with pole at p and niinmathbbN, for i=1,dots,N. When N=1,2 many results are now available for the periodic solvability of such system and provide the existence of different classes of solutions known as: topological, non-topological, mixed and blow-up type. On the contrary for Nge3, only recently in cite{haya1} the authors managed to obtain the existence of one doubly periodic solution via a minimisation procedure, in the spirit of cite{nota} . Our main contribution in this paper is to show (as in cite{nota}) that actually the given system admits a second doubly periodic solutions of "Mountain-pass" type, provided that 3leNle5. Note that the existence of multiple solutions is relevant from the physical point of view. Indeed, it implies the co-existence of different non-Abelian Chern--Simons condensates sharing the same set (assigned component-wise) of vortex points, energy and fluxes. The main difficulty to overcome is to attain a "compactness" property encompassed by the so called Palais--Smale condition for the corresponding "action" functional, whose validity remains still open for Nge6.
