Abstract
We provide sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solutions of a 4D non-resonant system perturbed by smooth or non-smooth functions. We apply these results to study the small amplitude periodic solutions of the non-linear planar double pendulum perturbed by smooth or non-smooth function.

We say that a vector field \(X:D\subset \mathbb {R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb {R}^n\) is piecewise continuous if its domain of definition D can be partitioned in a finite collection of connected, open and disjoint sets \(D_i\), \(i=1,\cdots ,k\), such that \(\cup \overline{D_i}=D\), and the vector field \(X\big |_{\overline{D}_i}\) is continuous for \(i=1,\cdots ,k\).
We denote by \(S_X\subset \partial D_1\cup \cdots \cup \partial D_k\) the set of points where the vector field X is discontinuous. By assumptions, the set \(S_X\) has measure zero.
If \(\Sigma \subset S_X\) is a manifold of codimension one, then \(\Sigma \) can be decomposed as the union of the closure of the following three kind of regions (see Fig. 5):
For \(p\in \Sigma ^e\cup \Sigma ^s\) we define the Sliding Vector Field as
Consider the following equation
where \(X:D\subset \mathbb {R}^n\rightarrow \mathbb {R}^n\) is a piecewise continuous vector field. The local solution of the equation (36) passing through a point \(p\in \Sigma \) is given by the Filippov convention:
-
(i)
for \(p\in \Sigma ^c\) such that \((Xh)(p),(Yh)(p)>0\) and taking the origin of time at p, the trajectory is defined as \(\varphi _Z(t,p)=\varphi _Y(t,p)\) for \(t\in I_p\cap \{t<0\}\) and \(\varphi _Z(t,p)=\varphi _X(t,p)\) for \(t\in I_p\cap \{t>0\}\). For the case \((Xh)(p),(Yh)(p)<0\) the definition is the same reversing time;
-
(ii)
for \(p\in \Sigma ^e\cup \Sigma ^s\) such that \(Z_s(p)\ne 0\), \(\varphi _Z(t,p)=\varphi _{Z_s}(t,p)\) for \(t\in I_p\subset \mathbb {R}\).
Here \(\varphi _W\) denotes the flow of a vector field W.
For more details about discontinuous differential equation see Filippov’s book [7].
