Extract

1·1. A general problem in the theory of non-linear differential equations of the second order is: Given a non-linear differential equation of the second order uniformly almost periodic (u.a.p.) in the independent variable and with certain disposable constants (parameters), to find: (i) the non-trivial relations between these parameters such that the given differential equation has a non-periodic u.a.p. solution; (ii) the number of periodic and non-periodic u.a.p. solutions which correspond to each such relation; and (iii) explicit analytical expressions for the u.a.p. solutions when they exist.
