Abstract

In this chapter we continue this study and we prove new results regarding the existence of nontrivial solutions of Hammerstein integral equations with reflections of the form

$$\begin{aligned} u(t)=\int _{-T}^{T} k(t,s)g(s)f(s,u(s),u(-s))\mathrm {d}s,\quad t\in [-T,T], \end{aligned}$$

where the kernel k is allowed to be not of constant sign.
