Abstract

An oscillator such that all motions have the same minimal period is called isochronous. When the isochronous is forced by a time-dependent perturbation with the same natural frequency as the oscillator the phenomenon of resonance can appear. This fact is well understood for the harmonic oscillator and we extend it to the nonlinear scenario.
