The theory of maximal monotone operators is applied to prove the existence of weak periodic solutions for a nonlinear nonlocal problem. The stability of these solutions is a consequence of the Lipschitz continuous assumption on the diffusivity matrix and the death rate.

Our paper deals with the following nonlinear neutral differential equation with variable delay $$\frac{d}{dt}D{u}_t\left(t\right)=p\left(t\right)-a\left(t\right)u\left(t\right)-a\left(t\right)g\left(u(t-\tau \left(t\right))\right)-h(u\left(t\right),u(t-\tau \left(t\right))).$$ By using Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem we obtain the existence of periodic solution and by contraction mapping principle we obtain the uniqueness. A sufficient condition is established for the positivity of the above equation. Stability results of this equation are analyzed. Our results extend and complement some results obtained in the work [Yuan, Y., Guo, Z.: On the existence and stability of...

We use the coincidence degree to establish new results on the existence and uniqueness of T-periodic solutions for a kind of Duffing equation with two deviating arguments of the form x'' + Cx'(t) + g₁(t,x(t-τ₁(t))) + g₂(t,x(t-τ₂(t))) = p(t).

By applying the continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory, we establish new results on the existence and uniqueness of 2π-periodic solutions for a class of nonlinear nth order differential equations with delays.

This paper is concerned with a class of Nicholson's blowflies models with multiple time-varying delays. By applying the coincidence degree, some criteria are established for the existence and uniqueness of positive periodic solutions of the model. Moreover, a totally new approach to proving the uniqueness of positive periodic solutions is proposed. In particular, an example is employed to illustrate the main results.

Consider the forced higher-order nonlinear neutral functional differential equation $$\frac{{\mathrm{d}}^n}{\mathrm{d}{t}^n}[x\left(t\right)+C\left(t\right)x(t-\tau )]+\sum _{i=1}^m{Q}_i\left(t\right)f_i\left(x(t-{\sigma }_i)\right)=g\left(t\right),t\ge t_0,$$ where $n,m\ge 1$ are integers, $\tau ,{\sigma }_i\in {ℝ}^{+}=[0,\infty )$, $C,Q_i,g\in C([t_0,\infty ),ℝ)$, $f_i\in C(ℝ,ℝ)$, $(i=1,2,\cdots ,m)$. Some sufficient conditions for the existence of a nonoscillatory solution of above equation are obtained for general $Q_i\left(t\right)$$(i=1...$
