Abstract

In this paper, using the method of upper and lower solutions and its associated monotone iterations, we establish a new monotone-iterative scheme for finding periodic solutions of an impulsive differential equations. This method leads to the existence of maximal and minimal periodic solutions which can be computed from a linear iteration process in the same fashion as for impulsive differential equations initial value problem. This method is constructive and can be used to develop a computational algorithm for numerical solution of the periodic impulsive system. Our existence result improves a result established in [1]. The result is applied to a model of mutualism of Lotka–Volterra type which involves interactions among a mutualist-competitor, a competitor and a mutualist, the existence of positive periodic solutions of the model is obtained.
