Description
Summary:<p>Abstract</p> <p>This paper is devoted to study the existence of periodic solutions of the second-order equation <inline-formula> <graphic file="1687-2770-2010-626054-i1.gif"/></inline-formula>, where <inline-formula> <graphic file="1687-2770-2010-626054-i2.gif"/></inline-formula> is a Carath&#233;odory function, by combining a new expression of Green's function together with Dancer's global bifurcation theorem. Our main results are sharp and improve the main results by Torres (2003).</p>
