We study the existence of one-signed periodic solutions of the equations $$\begin{array}{ccc}& x^{\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right)-a^2\left(t\right)x\left(t\right)+\mu f(t,x\left(t\right),x^{\text{'}}\left(t\right))=0,\hfill & \hfill x^{\text{'}\text{'}}\left(t\right)+a^2\left(t\right)x\left(t\right)=\mu f(t,x\left(t\right),x^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)),\end{array}$$ where $\mu >0$, $a:(-\infty ,+\infty )\to (0,\infty )$ is continuous and 1-periodic, $f$ is a continuous and 1-periodic in the first variable and may take values of different signs. The Krasnosielski fixed point theorem on cone is used.

The stability properties of solutions of the differential system which represents the considered model for the Belousov - Zhabotinskij reaction are studied in this paper. The existence of oscillatory solutions of this system is proved and a theorem on separation of zero-points of the components of such solutions is established. It is also shown that there exists a periodic solution.

The paper investigates the singular initial problem[4pt] ${\left(p\left(t\right)u^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)\right)}^{\text{'}}+q\left(t\right)f\left(u\left(t\right)\right)=0,u\left(0\right)=u_0,u^{\text{'}}\left(0\right)=0$[4pt] on the half-line $[0,\infty )$. Here $u_0\in [L_0,L]$, where $L_0$, $0$ and $L$ are zeros of $f$, which is locally Lipschitz continuous on $ℝ$. Function $p$ is continuous on $[0,\infty )$, has a positive continuous derivative on $(0,\infty )$ and $p\left(0\right)=0$. Function $q$ is continuous on $[0,\infty )$ and positive on $(0,\infty )$. For specific values $u_0$ we prove the existence and uniqueness of damped solutions of this problem. With additional conditions for $f$, $p$ and $q$ it is shown that the problem has for each specified $u_0$ a unique...

In this paper we examine some features of the global dynamics of the four-dimensional system created by Lou, Ruggeri and Ma in 2007 which describes the behavior of the AIDS-related cancer dynamic model in vivo. We give upper and lower ultimate bounds for concentrations of cell populations and the free HIV-1 involved in this model. We show for this dynamics that there is a positively invariant polytope and we find a few surfaces containing omega-limit sets for positive half trajectories in the positive...
