- Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the problem of the existence and multiplicity of periodic solutions to the planar Hamiltonian system x ′ = - λ α (t) f (y) x^{\prime}=-\lambda\alpha(t)f(y) , y ′ = λ β (t) g (x) y^{\prime}=\lambda\beta(t)g(x) , where α , β \alpha,\beta are non-negative 𝑇-periodic coefficients and λ > 0 \lambda>0. We focus our study to the so-called "degenerate" situation, namely when the set Z := supp α ∩ supp β Z:=\operatorname{supp}\alpha\cap\operatorname{supp}\beta has Lebesgue measure zero. It is known that, in this case, for some choices of 𝛼 and 𝛽, no nontrivial 𝑇-periodic solution exists. On the opposite, we show that, depending of some geometric configurations of 𝛼 and 𝛽, the existence of a large number of 𝑇-periodic solutions (as well as subharmonic solutions) is guaranteed (for λ > 0 \lambda>0 and large). Our proof is based on the Poincaré–Birkhoff twist theorem. Applications are given to Volterra's predator-prey model with seasonal effects.
