Existence of nontrivial periodic solutions for first order functional differential equations. (English) Zbl 1075.34064

Summary: In the case of not requiring the nonlinear terms to be nonnegative, the existence of nontrivial periodic solutions for the first-order functional-differential equations is considered by using the partial ordering theory.
