Abstract

In this paper, under some ordered conditions, we investigate the existence of positive ω-periodic solutions for a class of second-order neutral functional differential equations with delayed derivative in nonlinearity of the form (x(t) − cx(tδ))″ + a(t)g(x(t))x(t) = λb(t)f(t, x(t), x(tτ 1(t)), x′(tτ 2(t))). By utilizing the perturbation method of a positive operator and the fixed point index theory in cones, some sufficient conditions are established for the existence as well as the non-existence of positive ω-periodic solutions.
