Abstract: | Consider the n-dimensional nonautonomous system ?(t) = A(t)G(x(t)) ? B(t)F(x(t ? τ(t))) Let u = (u 1,…,u n ), $f^{i}_{0}={rm lim}_{|{rm u}|rightarrow 0}{f^{i}(rm u)over |u|}$ , $f^{i}_{infty}={rm lim}_{|{rm u}|rightarrow infty}{f^{i}(rm u)over |u|}$ , i = l,…,n, F = (f 1…,f n ), ${rm F_{0}}={rm max}_{i=1,ldots,n}{f^{i}_{0}}$ and ${rm F_{infty}}={rm max}_{i=1,ldots,n}{f^{i}_{infty}}$ . Under some quite general conditions, we prove that either F0 = 0 and F∞ = ∞, or F0 = ∞ and F∞ = 0, guarantee the existence of positive periodic solutions for the system for all λ > 0. Furthermore, we show that F0 = F∞ = 0, or F∞ = F∞ = ∞ guarantee the multiplicity of positive periodic solutions for the system for sufficiently large, or small λ, respectively. We also establish the nonexistence of the system when either F0 and F∞ > 0, or F0 and F∞, < for sufficiently large, or small λ, respectively. We shall use fixed point theorems in a cone. |
