    Let T>0, a() be a T-periodic continous function defined in R, and α (R) be a positive constant. Define a potential function V as follows

    V(t,x)=c(t)2|x|2+a(t)P+1|x|P+1, (1.1)

    where P>1 and a(t)α>0. In this paper, we investigate the existence of multiple nontrivial T-periodic solutions of the following problem

    {¨x+Vx(t,x)=0,    x(0)=x(T),  ˙x(0)=˙x(T), (1.2)

    where xRN, N1, and c() satisfies the following condition, (Hc) 0<c(t) is a T-periodic continous function and cC(R,R).

    It's obvious that x=0 is a trivial solution of (1.2). Indeed, we are interested in the multiplicity of nontrivial T-periodic solutions of (1.2), and will get that (1.2) has at least two nontrivial T-periodic solutions when c(t) is near to any fixed eigenvalue of the linear periodic boundary value problem, for t[0,T],

    {¨x+λx=0,    x(0)=x(T),  ˙x(0)=˙x(T). (1.3)

    Actually, (1.3) has eigenvalues λk=(2kπT)2, k=0,1,2,3,..., and eigenfunctions

    cos2kπTe,  sin2kπTf, (1.4)

    where, e,fRN, as k>1; eRN, as k=0.

    Next, the variational framework for (1.2) will be given. Set

    E:=H1per((0,T),RN)={xH1((0,T),RN)|x(0)=x(T)}.

    It's obvious that E is a Hilbert space with the inner product and norm listed below

    <x,y>=T0(˙x˙y+xy)dt,  x2=<x,x>, x,yE.

    By the compact embeddings

    EC([0,T],RN), ELq([0,T],RN), q1,

    the T-periodic solutions of (1.2) correspond to the critical points of the functional

    I(x)=T012[|˙x|2c(t)|x|2]a(t)P+1|x|P+1dt.

    It's obvious that as c(t)λ1, the trivial solution x=0 is a critical point as a local saddle point of the functional I. By assumptions, we know IC2(E,R) and the derivatives

    <I(x),y>=T0(˙x˙yc(t)xy)dtT0a(t)|x|P1xydt,
    <I(x)y,z>=T0(˙y˙zc(t)yz)dtT0(a(t)|x|P1x)xyzdt,

    where x,y,zE.

    Our result is the following theorem.

    Theorem 1.1. Assume k1 and V(t,x) satisfies the (1.1). Then, there exists a δ>0 such that as c(t)(λk+1δ,λk+1+δ), (1.2) has a nontrivial T-periodic solution x1, and the critical group satisfies the following

    Cik+1+1(I,x1)0.

    Furthermore, as c(t)(λk+1δ,λk+1), there exists another nontrivial T-periodic solutions x2 of (1.2), and the critical group satisfies

    Cik+1(I,x2)0.

    This paper is directly motivated by [1,2]. In [1], as c(t) is a positive constant in R, by linking theorem, the existence of one nontrivial T-periodic solutions of the problem (1.2) in one dimension is discussed. In [2], the authors studied the multiple periodic solutions of superlinear second order ODEs in one dimension by morse theory. Actually, a typical model in the applications of Morse theory and minimax methods is the second order Hamiltonian system. We can refer to [3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12] for some historical progress.

    Here, applying morse theory and homological linking to look for multiple periodic solutions for ODEs in N(1) dimensions. On the one hand, in our problem, c(t) is a T-periodic vibrating function different from the previous case that c(t) is a positive constant. As c(t) is not the T-periodic function, the existence of unbounded solutions of higher order differential equations considered as perturbations of certain linear differential equations can be referred to [13]. On the other hand, the dimension in our problem is N(1), which is more general than the dimension in [2]. To solve the problem, we need to construct new critical groups and direct sum decomposition.

    Precisely, in Theorem 1.1, as c(t) is near to λk+1, we can construct the homological linking with respect to Ek+1Ek+1. And we get at least two nontrivial T-periodic solutions, which is different from the result there is at least one nontrivial T-periodic solution in [1]. Furthermore, as c(t)(λk+1δ,λk+1), we can also construct the homological linking w.r.t. EkEk and investigate the existence of the nontrivial T-periodic solutions. In the remarkable paper [14], the author obtained one nonconstant periodic solution as c(t)=0 and the potential V was of class C1, using a critical point theorem, which is now famous as the generalized mountain pass theorem. In [6], the author extended the existence result in [14] investigating (1.2) as c(t) is a constant symmetric matrix by local linking argument, and got one nontrivial periodic solution as the potential V was of class C1 and satisfied local sign condition [6] near the origin. The fundamental idea here is sources from [15], where the authors studied the superlinear elliptic problem with a saddle structure near zero by bifurcation methods, Morse theory, and topological linking.

    The structure of the paper is arranged as follows. In Section 2, we recall the basic Morse theories and give a lemma on the (PS) condition. In Section 3, we prove the main result.

    In this section, we recall some preliminaries on Morse theory and homological linking in [7,8,16].

    Assume the functional IC2(E,R), where E is a Hilbert space. Set K={xE|I(x)=0},Ic={xE|I(x)c}, and Kc={xK|I(x)=c}. We recall that I satisfies (PS)c condition at the level cR, if any sequence {xn}E satisfying I(xn)c, I(xn)0 as n, has a convergent subsequence. I satisfies (PS) if I satisfies (PS)c at any cR.

    Assume that the functional I satisfies (PS) and # K< in this paper. Let x0K with I(x0)=cR, and U be a neighborhood of x0 such that UK={x0}. Then, q-th critical group of I at x0 is defined below

    Cq(I,x0):=Hq(IcU,IcU{x0}), qZ,

    where H(A,B) denotes the singular relative homology group of the pair (A,B) with coefficient field F ([7,8,16]). We can distinguish critical points by critical groups. The multiplicity of critical points and critical groups can be referred to [16].

    For the critical groups of I at an isolated critical point, the following basic conclusions hold.

    Proposition 2.1. Assume that x is an isolated critical point of IC2(E,R) with finite Morse index i(x) and nullity ν(x). Then

    (1) Cq(I,x)δq,i(x)F, if ν(x)=0;

    (2) Cq(I,x)0 for q [i(x),i(x)+ν(x)] (Gromoll and Meyer [17]).

    From Theorems 1.1 and 1.5 of Chapter II in [8], the following abstract linking theorem is easily obtained (See also [3,18]).

    Proposition 2.2. ([3,8,18]) Let E be a real Banach space with E=XY and suppose that l=dimX is finite. Suppose that IC1(E,R) satisfies (PS)condition and

    (H1) there exist ρ>0,α0>0 such that

    I(x)α0,  xSρ=YBρ,

    where Bρ={xE| xρ},

    (H2) there exist R>ρ>0, and eY with e=1 such that

    I(x)<α0,  xQ,

    where Q={x=x1+se|  xR,x1X, 0sR}.

    Then I has a critical point x with I(x)α0 and

    Cl+1(I,x)0.

    Remark 2.1. In proposition above, Sρ and Q are homotopically linked with respect to direct sum decomposition E=XY.

    Lemma 2.1. Assume that the T-periodic function c() satisfies (Hc), and the potential function V satisfies (1.1). Then, I satisfy the (PS) condition.

    Proof. Let {xn}E=H1per((0,T),RN) satisfy the following,

    {|I(xn)|C,    nN,  I(xn)θ,   as n,       (2.1)

    where θ is a zero vector, C>0 is a constant. In fact, φE=H1per((0,T),RN), we have

    dI(xn,φ)=T0[˙xn˙φc(t)xnφa(t)|xn|P1xnφ]dt0. (2.2)

    Taking φ=xn in (2.2), we have

    T0[|˙xn|2c(t)|xn|2a(t)|xn|P+1]dt=o(xn), (2.3)

    and by (2.1), the following holds

    |T0[|˙xn|2c(t)|xn|22a(t)  |xn|P+1P+1]dt|C, (2.4)

    i.e.,

    CT0[|˙xn|2c(t)|xn|22a(t)  |xn|P+1P+1]dtC. (2.5)

    Combining (2.3) and (2.4) (or (2.5)), we have

    Co(xn)(121P+1)T0|˙xn|2c(t)|xn|2dtC+o(xn). (2.6)

    Since P>1, we have 121P+1>0. So by (2.6), the following holds

    C1o(xn)T0|˙xn|2c(t)|xn|2dtC1+o(xn), (2.7)

    where C1>0 is a constant. Then, by (2.7) and (2.3), we have

    T0a(t)|xn|P+1dtC2, (2.8)

    where C2>0 is a constant. Furthermore, there exists a CM>0 such that 0<c(t)CM, t[0,T]. By Hölder inequality, we get

    T0|xn(t)|2dt(T0a(t)|xn|P+1dt)2P+1(T0a2P1(t)dt)P1P+1, (2.9)

    and

    T0c(t)|xn(t)|2dtCMT0|xn(t)|2dtCM(T0a(t)|xn|P+1dt)2P+1(T0a2P1(t)dt)P1P+1. (2.10)

    Next, by (2.7), (2.8), and (2.10), we have

    T0|˙xn(t)|2dtC3,

    where C3>0 is a constant. So, xnC4, where C4>0 is a constant, i.e., {xn} is bounded in E. Without loss of generality, up to a subsequence, assume that there exists a point x0E such that as n, xnx0 in E and xnx0 in C([0,T],RN), and furthermore xnx0 in L2([0,T],RN). So

    xnx0=supu1<xnx0,u>=supu1[T0(˙xn˙x0,˙u)+(xnx0,u)dt]=supu1{T0(a(t)[|xn|P1xn|x0|P1x0],u)+(c(t)(xnx0),u))dt+<I(xn)I(x0),u>+T0(xnx0,u)dt}0,  as n.

    Hence, xnx0 in E. The proof is completed.

    We need some notations to construct the linking. For jN, set

    E(λj)=ker(d2dt2+λj),  Ej=ji=1E(λi),  E=EjEj.

    For each j1, by (1.4), we have νj:=dimE(λj)=2N, ij:=dimEj=jk=0νk=2jN+N. It's obvious that in Ej,

    T0|˙x(t)|2dtλj+1T0|x(t)|2dt, (2.11)

    and in Ej,

    T0|˙x|2dtλjT0|x|2dt. (2.12)

    At the beginning of this section, to verify the conditions (H1) and (H2) in Proposition 2.2, we give some preliminary lemmas below.

    Lemma 3.1. For any 0<c(t)<λj+1, t[0,T], there exist rj,αj>0 such that

    Φ(x)αj, x{xEj| x=rj}.

    Proof. By embedding theorem (Chapter 10 in [1], Chapter 1 in [16]), we have

    xP+1Cx, (3.1)

    where C>0 is a constant, xP+1=(T0|x|P+1dt)1P+1, x=(T0|˙x|2+|x|2dt)12. Meanwhile, since a(t) is a T-periodic continuous function. There exist m,M such that 0<αma(t)M. So by (3.1), the following holds

    1P+1T0a(t)|x|P+1dtMCP+1xP+1,  where  M=MP+1.

    In addition, since c(t) is a T-periodic continuous function, for any 0<c(t)<λj+1, there exists a constant cM>0, which is the maximum of c(t), t[0,T], such that 0<c(t)cM<λj+1. So for xEj, by (2.11), we have

    I(x)=12T0[|˙x|2c(t)|x|2]dt1P+1T0a(t)|x|P+1dt=12T0[|˙x|2+|x|2(c(t)+1)|x|2]dt1P+1T0a(t)|x|P+1dt12T0[|˙x|2+|x|2(cM+1)|x|2]dtMCP+1xP+112(x2cM+1λj+1+1x2)MCP+1xP+112(λj+1cMλj+1+1)x2MCP+1xP+1. (3.2)

    Next, taking α=λj+1cMλj+1+1>0, β=MCP+1, we have

    I(x)α2x2βxP+1,  xEj.

    As a result of P>1, the function g(s)=α2s2βsP+1 on (0,) has its maximum

    αj:=gmax=g([α(P+1)β]1P1)=P12(P+1)αP+1P1(β(P+1)21P).

    Set rj=[α(P+1)β]1P1. By the process above, we therefore have

    I(x)αj, for  xEj with x=rj.

    The proof is completed.

    Remark 3.1. It's obvious that αj and rj decreasingly approach to zero as cMλj+1.

    Now, for the eigenvalue λj+1 of (1.3), we take the corresponding unit eigenfunction φj+1, i.e., φj+1=1. For j=k,k+1, define

    Sk={xEk| x=rk},  Sk+1={xEk+1| x=rk+1},
    Vk=Ekspan{φk+1},  Vk+1=Ek+1span{φk+2},

    where rj is defined in Lemma 3.1, j=k,k+1.

    Lemma 3.2. Assume V(t,x) satisfies (1.1) and c(t)(λk,λk+2).There exist σR, δ>0, and R>0 independent c(t) and δ, such that as c(t)(λk+1δ,λk+1+δ), the following holds

    I(x)σ<αk+1,  for xQk+1,

    where Qk+1={xVk+1| xR,x=x1+sφk+2,x1Ek+1,s0}. Furthermore, as c(t)(λk,λk+1), there exists a constant R>0 independent of c(t) such that

    I(x)0, xQk,

    where Qk={xVk| xR,x=x1+sφk+1,x1Ek,s0}.

    Proof. Since a()>0 is a T-periodic continuous function and a(t)α, t[0,T], by (2.12) and c(t)(λk,λk+2), we easily get, for x=x1+x2+x3Vk+1, where x1Ek, x2E(λk+1), x3span{φk+2},

    I(x)=12T0[|˙x|2]c(t)|x|2]dtT0a(t)P+1|x|P+1dt12T0(λkc(t))|x1|2+(λk+1c(t))|x3|2+(λk+2c(t))|x3|2dtαP+1T0|x|P+1dt12T0(λk+2c(t))|x|2dtαP+1T0|x|P+1dt12T0(λk+2λk)|x|2dtαP+1T0|x|P+1dt. (3.3)

    Since P>1,dimVk+1<, and all norms are equivalent in a space with a finite dimension, by (3.3), we have I(x), as  x. So, there exists a constant R>0 independent of c(t) such that

    I(x)0, xVk+1, x=R. (3.4)

    Now, choosing R>max{rk,rk+1}>0. For Ek+1y=y1+y2 with yR, where y1Ek,y2E(λk+1).

    Next, for c(t)(λk,λk+2), by (2.12), we have

    I(y)12(λkc(t))y122+12(λk+1c(t))y22212|λk+1c(t)|R2.

    Now, taking σ=αk+12,δ=2σR2, where αk+1 is defined in Lemma 3.1, we get as |λk+1c(t)|<δ,

    I(y)σ<αk+1, for yEk+1,yR,  as  |λk+1c(t)|<δ. (3.5)

    Meanwhile, we have

    Qk+1={x=x1+sφk+2| x=R,x1Ek+1,s0}{x1Ek+1| x1R}.

    Then, by (3.4) and (3.5), we obtain

    I(x)σ<αk+1,xQk+1, as c(t)(λk+1δ,λk+1+δ).

    Furthermore, as a matter of fact, we have

    Qk={x=x1+tφk+1|x=R, x1Ek,t0}{x1Ek|xR}. (3.6)

    On the one hand, since VkVk+1, for c(t)(λk,λk+1)(λk,λk+2), R>0 mentioned above, by (3.4), it follows that

    I(x)0, xVk,x=R. (3.7)

    On the other hand, it's obvious that, for  x1Ek,

    I(x1)12(λkc(t))x122T0a(t)P+1|x1|P+1dt0. (3.8)

    So, by (3.6), (3.7), and (3.8), we get

    I(x)0,   xQk.

    The proof is completed.

    Now, by two lemmas proved above, using the Proposition 2.2, we could prove the main result.

    Proof. Proof of Theorem 1.1. To give a clear proof, we shall take several steps to finish it.

    Firstly, by Lemma 2.1, I satisfies the (PS) condition.

    Secondly, by Lemmas 3.1 and 3.2, I satisfies the (H1) and (H2) in Proposition 2.2. So the following holds

    infxSk+1I(x)αk+1>αk+12maxxQk+1I(x).

    Next, for the R mentioned in Lemma 3.2, it satisfies the following

    R>max{rk,rk+1}>0. (3.9)

    So we have Sk+1 and Qk+1 homotopically link w.r.t. the decomposition E=Ek+1Ek+1. Furthermore, since dimVk+1=ik+1+1, by Proposition 2.2, we have a critical point x1 of the functional I with I(x1)αk+1>0 and

    Cik+1+10.

    Thirdly, for the situation c(t)(λk+1δ,λk+1)(λk,λk+1), I satisfies (H1) and (H2). What's more, the following holds

    infxSkI(x)αk>0maxxQkI(x).

    By (3.9), Sk and Qk homotopically link w.r.t. the decomposition E=EkEk. Furthermore, since dimVk=ik+1, by Proposition 2.2, we have a critical point x2 of the functional I with I(x2)αk>0 and

    Cik+10.

    Finally, as a matter of fact, we have

    (ik+1+1)(ik+1)=ik+1ik=[2(k+1)N+N](2kN+N)=2N.

    Combining the following fact,

    dimkerI(x)=dim{xE|¨x+(c(t)IN+(a(t)|x|P1x)x|x=x)x=0}=dim{xE|¨x+(c(t)IN+B(t,x))x=0}2N,

    where x is a critical point of the functional I, and

    B(t,xc)=(a(t)|x|P1x1x1a(t)|x|P1x1x2...a(t)|x|P1x1xNa(t)|x|P1x2x1a(t)|x|P1x2x2...a(t)|x|P1x2xN............|x|P1xNx1a(t)|x|P1xNx1...a(t)|x|P1xNxN)|x=x,

    by Proposition 2.1(2), we obtain x1x2. The proof is completed.

    Right now, we can directly have the following conclusion by Theorem 1.1.

    Corollary 3.1. Assume V(t,x) satisfies (1.1) and k(N)1. Then, there exists a δ>0 such that as c(t)(λk+1,λk+1+δ), (1.2) has at least one nontrivial T-periodic solution.

    In this paper, we prove the existence of multiple nontrivial T-periodic solutions of the equation ¨x+Vx(t,x)=0 in RN, N(1), where Vx(t,x) is the derivative of V(t,x) satisfying (1.1) with respect to x. Since the nontrivial T-periodic solutions correspond to the critical points of the functional of the problem, to get the multiple T-periodic solutions, we prove the existence and multiplicity of critical points of the functional. Employing the homological linking and morse theory, we get at least two nontrivial T-periodic solutions and distinguish them by critical groups. By the way, as the range of the T-periodic function c(t) satisfying (Hc) in (1.1), a right small neighborhood of the k-th eigenvalue of (1.3), there exists a nontrivial T-periodic solution. Here, our main result is different from the previous works (see [1,2] and the references therein).
