Periodic solutions to certain classes of third order delay differential equations

S. A. Olayemi, B. S. Ogundare

In this paper, existence of unique periodic solutions for two classes of third order delay differential equations are considered. The two equations are expressed in their integral equivalents with which suitable Green’s function is constructed and its associated properties stated. The main tool adopted to establish the existence of unique periodic solutions to the classes of delay differential equations is the Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem due to its applicability to the combination of a compact and contraction mappings which occur in dealing with perturbed differential operators.
