Abstract
In this paper we consider a forced oscillator with a discontinuous restoring force. By the Aubry–Mather theory we prove that there exist infinitely many periodic and quasiperiodic solutions. The proof relies on analysing the generating function of the system. The approach is applicable to studying the dynamics of more general forced nonsmooth oscillators of Hamiltonian type.
期刊介绍:
Qualitative Theory of Dynamical Systems (QTDS) publishes high-quality peer-reviewed research articles on the theory and applications of discrete and continuous dynamical systems. The journal addresses mathematicians as well as engineers, physicists, and other scientists who use dynamical systems as valuable research tools. The journal is not interested in numerical results, except if these illustrate theoretical results previously proved.
