We consider first order neutral functional differential equations with multiple deviating arguments of the form ${(x\left(t\right)+Bx(t-\delta ))}^{\text{'}}=g₀(t,x\left(t\right))+{\sum }_{k=1}^n{g}_k(t,x(t-{\tau }_k\left(t\right)))+p\left(t\right)$. By using coincidence degree theory, we establish some sufficient conditions on the existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions for the above equation. Moreover, two examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of our results.

By using the coincidence degree theory of Mawhin, we study the existence of periodic solutions for $n$ th order delay differential equations with damping terms $x^{\left(n\right)}\left(t\right)=\sum _{i=1}^s{b}_i{\left[x^{\left(i\right)}\left(t\right)\right]}^{2k-1}+f\left(x(t-\tau \left(t\right))\right)+p\left(t\right)$. Some new results on the existence of periodic solutions of the investigated equation are obtained.

In this paper, we consider periodic solutions for a class of nonlinear evolution equations with non-instantaneous impulses on Banach spaces. By constructing a Poincaré operator, which is a composition of the maps and using the techniques of a priori estimate, we avoid assuming that periodic solution is bounded like in [1-4] and try to present new sufficient conditions on the existence of periodic mild solutions for such problems by utilizing semigroup theory and Leray-Schauder's fixed point theorem....

In this paper we prove the existence of periodic solutions for a class of nonlinear evolution inclusions defined in an evolution triple of spaces $(X,H,X^{*})$ and driven by a demicontinuous pseudomonotone coercive operator and an upper semicontinuous multivalued perturbation defined on $T\times X$ with values in $H$. Our proof is based on a known result about the surjectivity of the sum of two operators of monotone type and on the fact that the property of pseudomonotonicity is lifted to the Nemitsky operator, which we...

We consider a quasilinear vector differential equation with maximal monotone term and periodic boundary conditions. Approximating the maximal monotone operator with its Yosida approximation, we introduce an auxiliary problem which we solve using techniques from the theory of nonlinear monotone operators and the Leray-Schauder principle. To obtain a solution of the original problem we pass to the limit as the parameter λ > 0 of the Yosida approximation tends to zero.

By using the least action principle and minimax methods in critical point theory, some existence theorems for periodic solutions of second order Hamiltonian systems are obtained.

Two theorems about the existence of periodic solutions with prescribed energy for second order Hamiltonian systems are obtained. One gives existence for almost all energies under very natural conditions. The other yields existence for all energies under a further condition.

In this paper, by using the least action principle, Sobolev's inequality and Wirtinger's inequality, some existence theorems are obtained for periodic solutions of second-order Hamiltonian systems with a p-Laplacian under subconvex condition, sublinear growth condition and linear growth condition. Our results generalize and improve those in the literature.

The authors use coincidence degree theory to establish some new results on the existence of T-periodic solutions for the delay differential equation x''(t) + a₁x'(t) + a₂(xⁿ(t))' + a₃x(t)+ a₄x(t-τ) + a₅xⁿ(t) + a₆xⁿ(t-τ) = f(t), which appears in a model of a power system. These results are of practical significance.

In this paper, we deal with the existence of periodic solutions of the $p\left(t\right)$-Laplacian Hamiltonian system $$\left\{\begin{array}{c}{\displaystyle \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}}\left(\right|\dot{u}\left(t\right){|}^{p\left(t\right)-2}\dot{u}\left(t\right))=\nabla F(t,u\left(t\right))\text{a.e.}t\in [0,T],\hfill \\ u\left(0\right)-u\left(T\right)=\dot{u}\left(0\right)-\dot{u}\left(T\right)=0.\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ Some new existence theorems are obtained by using the least action principle and minimax methods in critical point theory, and our results generalize and improve some existence theorems.
