Abstract

In this paper, we consider a kind of second-order delay differential system. By taking some transforms, the property of delay is reflected in the boundary condition. The wonder is that the corrseponding first-order system is exactly the so-called P-boundary value problem of Hamiltonian system which has been studied deeply by many mathematicians, including the authors of this paper. Firstly, we define the relative Morse index for the delay system and give the relationship with the P-index of Hamiltonian system. Secondly, by this index, topology degree and saddle point reduction, the existence of periodic solutions is established for this kind of delay differential system.
