Abstract

We study periodic solutions of second order Hamiltonian systems with even potential. By making use of generalized Nehari manifold, some sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the multiplicity and minimality of periodic solutions for second order Hamiltonian systems. Our results generalize the outcome in the literature.

Highlights

  • Denote by N, Z, R∗, R the sets of all natural numbers, integers, nonnegative real numbers, and real numbers, respectively

  • We study periodic solutions of second order Hamiltonian systems with even potential

  • When A = 0, in his pioneering work [1] of 1978, Rabinowitz established the existence of periodic solutions of (1) when V satisfies (V1), (V2), and the well-known ARcondition: (V7)
