Part of the book series: Progress in Nonlinear Differential Equations and Their Applications ((PNLDE,volume 43))

Abstract

There has been much interest during recent years in boundedness questions linked to forced oscillator equations of the type Here the case we are interested in is a bounded nonlinearityf:R - R for which the limits f (∞) =(x)and f (—∞) =1(x)both exist. Moreover, p is a 27r-periodic forcing, and we ask for sharp conditions which allow us to decide whether all solutions of (1.1) are bounded in the(x¡À)-phase plane.
