Since Littlewood works in the 1960's, the boundedness of solutions of Duffing-type equations $\ddot{x}+g(x)=p(t)$ has been extensively investigated. More recently, some researches have focused on the family of non-smooth forced oscillators…
In this paper, we prove the boundedness of all the solutions for the equation $\ddot{x}+n^2x+g(x)+\psi'(x)=p(t)$ with the Lazer-Leach condition on $g$ and $p$, where $n\in \mathbb{N^+}$, $p(t)$ and $\psi'(x)$ are periodic and $g(x)$ is…
We prove existence and regularity of periodic in time solutions of completely resonant nonlinear forced wave equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions for a large class of non-monotone forcing terms. Our approach is based on a…
An oscillator is called isochronous if all motions have a common period. When the system is forced by a time-dependent perturbation with the same period the dynamics may change and the phenomenon of resonance can appear. In this context,…

Consider a linear impulsive equation in a Banach space $$\dot{x}(t)+A(t)x(t) = f(t), ~t \geq 0,$$ $$x(\tau_i +0)= B_i x(\tau_i -0) + \alpha_i,$$ with $\lim_{i \rightarrow \infty} \tau_i = \infty $. Suppose each solution of the corresponding…
In this paper, we consider the boundedness of solutions for a class of impact oscillators $$ \{{array}{ll} \displaystyle \ddot{x}+x^{2n+1}+\sum_{i=0}^{2n}p_{i}(t)x^{i}=0,& \quad {\rm for}\quad x(t)> 0, x(t)\geq 0,&…
Our proof is based on a generalization of action-angle variables, a convergent Lie transformation, and Moser's invariant curve theorem. As an overall outline we give a quick proof of Morris' original theorem. Then the full theorem is…
We discuss the notion of resonance, as well as the existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions for a forced simple harmonic oscillator. While this topic is elementary, and well-studied for sinusoidal forcing, this does not seem to be the…
We explore stability and instability of rapidly oscillating solutions $x(t)$ for the hard spring delayed Duffing oscillator $$x''(t)+ ax(t)+bx(t-T)+x^3(t)=0.$$ Fix $T>0$. We target periodic solutions $x_n(t)$ of small minimal periods…
We give a short proof of Urabe's criteria for the isochronicity of periodical solutions of the equation $\ddot{x}+g(x)=0$. We show that apart from the harmonic oscillator there exists a large family of isochronous potentials which must all…

Solutions of a variational inequality are found by giving conditions for the monotone convergence with respect to a cone of the Picard iteration corresponding to its natural map. One of these conditions is the isotonicity of the projection…

In this work we study the equation $(E) \ddot x + f(x) \dot x^2 + g(x) = 0$ with a center at 0 and investigate conditions of its isochronicity. When $f$ and $g$ are analytic (not necessary odd) a necessary and sufficient condition for the…
In this paper, we are concerned with the boundedness of all the solutions for a kind of second order differential equations with p-Laplacian and an oscillating term $(\phi_p(x'))'+a\phi_p(x^+)-b\phi_p(x^-)=G_x(x,t)+f(t)$, where$x^+=\max…
In this paper we are concerned with the asymptotic behavior of nonautonomous fractional approximations of oscillon equation $$ u_{tt}-\mu(t)\Delta u+\omega(t)u_t=f(u),\ x\in\Omega,\ t\in\mathbb{R}, $$ subject to Dirichlet boundary condition…
