Abstract:
We prove the existence and uniqueness of solution for a first-order ordinary differential equation with periodic boundary conditions admitting only the existence of a lower solution. To this aim, we prove an appropriate fixed point theorem in partially ordered sets. ★ Partially supported by Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología/ FEDER, project BFM2001-3884-C02-01; and by Xunta de Galicia/ FEDER, project PGIDIT02PXIC20703PN.
