Existence and regularity of periodic solutions of nonlinear, completely resonant, forced wave equations is proved for a large class of non-monotone forcing terms. Our approach is based on a variational Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction. The corresponding infinite dimensional bifurcation equation exhibits an intrinsic lack of compactness. This difficulty is overcome finding a-priori estimates for the constrained minimizers of the reduced action functional, through techniques inspired by regularity...

Homoclinic solutions of 2nth-order difference equations containing both advance and retardation

Yuhua Long, Yuanbiao Zhang, Haiping Shi (2016)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

By using the critical point method, some new criteria are obtained for the existence and multiplicity of homoclinic solutions to a 2nth-order nonlinear difference equation. The proof is based on the Mountain Pass Lemma in combination with periodic approximations. Our results extend and improve some known ones.
