Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study various monotonicity conditions of the period function T(c)T(c) (energy-dependent) for potential systems x¨+g(x)=0\ddot x + g(x)=0 with a center at the origin 0. We had before identified a family of new criteria noted by (Cn)(C_n) which are sometimes thinner than those previously known ({\it Period function and characterizations of Isochronous potentials}\quad arXiv:1109.4611). This fact will be illustrated by examples.
