This theorem generalizes the work of Gallou¨et and Kavian [72], [73] which required λk to be a simple eigenvalue and the left-hand side of (16.81) to be sandwiched in between λk−1 and λk+1 and bounded away from both of them. C´ac proves a counterpart of the theorem in which the inequalities are reversed.
In the present chapter we generalized this theorem and its reverse-inequality counterpart by not requiring p(t)/t to converge to limits at either ±∞ or ±0. Rather, we worked with the primitive
t
F(x, t) := f (x, s)ds
0
and bounded 2F(x, t)/t2 near ±∞ and ±0 [we replaced p(t) with a function f (x, t) depending on x as well]. Our main assumptions were
(16.83) |
t[ f (x, t1) − f (x, t0)] ≤ a(t−)2 + b(t+)2, |
t j R, t = t1 − t0, |
(16.84) |
a0(t−)2 + b0(t+)2 ≤ 2F(x, t) ≤ a1(t−)2 |
+ b1(t+)2, |t| < δ, |
for some δ > 0, |

a2(t−)2 + b2(t+)2 − W1(x) ≤ 2F(x, t), |
|t| > K , |

for some K > 0 and W1 L1( ), where the constants a, a0, a1, a2, b, b0, b1, b2 are suitably chosen (they include the cases considered by C´ac). The advantage of such inequalities is that they do not restrict the expression 2F(x, t)/t2 or f (x, t)/t to any particular interval.
The results of this chapter come from [101] with changes in the proofs. Theorem 16.26 is from [28] with variations made in the proof. Lemma 16.9 is due to Castro [38].
Chapter 17
Second-Order Periodic Systems
17.1 Introduction
In this chapter we study a general system of second-order differential equations, and we look for periodic solutions. We show that for several sets of hypotheses such systems can be solved by the methods used in the book.
We consider the following problem. One wishes to solve
(17.1) |
−x¨(t) = x V (t, x(t)), |
where |
|
(17.2) |
x(t) = (x1(t), · · · , xn(t)) |
is a map from I = [0, T ] to Rn such that each component x j (t) is a periodic function with period T, and the function V (t, x) = V (t, x1, . . . , xn ) is continuous from Rn+1 to R with
(17.3) |
x V (t, x) = (∂ V /∂ x1, . . . , ∂ V /∂ xn) C(Rn+1, Rn ). |
For each x Rn , the function V (t, x) is periodic in t with period T. We shall study this problem under the following assumptions:
1. |
|
|
|
V (t, x) ≥ 0, |
t I, x Rn. |
|
|
|
|
||
2. |
There are constants m > 0, α ≤ 6m2/ T 2 such that |
||||
|
|
|
V (t, x) ≤ α, |x| ≤ m, t I, x Rn. |
||
3. |
There is a constant μ > 2 such that |
|
|||
|
(17.4) |
Hμ(t, x) |
≤ W (t) L1(I ), |
|x| ≥ C, t I, x Rn , |

We have
Theorem 17.1. Under the above hypotheses, system (17.1) has a solution.
As a variant of Theorem 17.1, we have
Theorem 17.2. The conclusion in Theorem 17.1 is the same if we replace hypothesis 2 with
2A. There is a constant q > 2 such that
V (t, x) ≤ C(|x|q + 1), t I, x Rn , and there are constants m > 0, α < 2π 2/ T 2 such that
V (t, x) ≤ α|x|2, |x| ≤ m, t I, x Rn .
We also have
Theorem 17.3. The conclusion of Theorem 17.1 holds if we replace hypothesis 3 with

The function given by |

|
|
satisfies |
|

|
and |
|
|
|
(17.12) |
H (t, x) → −∞, |x| → ∞, t I, x Rn . |
Theorems 17.1–17.4 show the existence of solutions, which conceivably could be constants. The following theorems provide the existence of non-constant solutions.
Theorem 17.5. If we replace hypothesis 4 in Theorem 17.1 with
4A. There are constants β > 2π 2/ T 2 and C such that
V (t, x) ≥ β|x|2, |x| > C, t I, x Rn,
then system (17.1) has a nonconstant solution.
As a variant of Theorem 17.5, we have
Theorem 17.6. The conclusion in Theorem 17.5 is the same if we replace hypothesis 2 with hypothesis 2A.
We also have
Theorem 17.7. The conclusion of Theorem 17.5 holds if we replace hypothesis 1 with hypothesis 1A and hypothesis 3 with hypothesis 3B.
We shall prove Theorems 17.1–17.7 in the next section. We use the linking method of Chapter 2.
17.2 Proofs of the theorems
We now give the proof of Theorem 17.1.
Proof. Let X be the set of vector functions x(t) described above. It is a Hilbert space with norm satisfying
|
n |
|
x 2X = |
x j 2H1 . |
|
We also write |
j =1 |
|
n |
||
x 2 = |
||
x j 2, |
||
|
j =1 |
|
where · is the L2(I ) norm. |

Second-Order Periodic Systems |
Let |
N = {x(t) X : x j (t) ≡ constant, |
1 ≤ j ≤ n}, |
|
and M = N . The dimension of N is n, and X = M N. The following is known (cf., e.g., Proposition 1.3 of [95]).
Lemma 17.8. If x M, then
x 2 ≤ T x˙ 2
∞ 12
and
x ≤ T x˙ .
2π
Proof. It suffices to prove the lemma for continuously differential periodic functions. First, consider the case T = 2π. Using Fourier series, we have

The proof of Theorem 17.2 is similar to that of Theorem 17.1 with the exception of inequality (17.18) resulting from hypothesis 2. In its place we reason as follows: If x M, we have, by hypothesis 2A,

The remainder of the proof is essentially the same.
