Abstract




In this paper three theorems on the existence of nontrivial periodic solutions of the system


\[ dx/dt =e(y)\]
\[dy/dt =-e(y)f(x)- g(x)\]


are proved, which not only generalize some known results on the existence of periodic solutions of Lienard's system (i.e. the special form for $e(y) = y$), but also relax or eliminate some traditional assumptions.
