Abstract

In this paper, we employ the fixed point index on cones to study the existence, multiplicity and nonexistence of positive periodic solutions to a system of infinite delay equations, ẋ(t) = A(t)x(t) + λf(t,x t) in which λ > 0 is a parameter. We prove some general theorems and establish new periodicity conditions for several population growth models.
