Abstract
We are interested in the existence of T periodic solutions of a second order system \(\ddot x\; + \;a\left( t \right)V'{ 1mu} \left( x \right)\; = \;f\left( t \right)\) where V: IR N → IR is a potential which will be assumed to be convex, and the maps a: IR – IR and f: IR → IR N being T periodic.
