Abstract

Using the classical fixed point index for cones in a Banach space some criteria for the existence of periodic solutions of autonomous functional differential equations (t)=F(xt) are derived, regarding the asymptotic behaviour of F near zero and infinity. The general result is applied to equations with distributed time delay.
