Abstract

In this article we give sufficient conditions for the existence of an antiperiodic solution to the van der Pol equation x′(t) = y(t), y′(t) = μ(x(t) - x3(t)/3)′ - x(t) + ƒ(t) for a. e. t ∈ ℝ, subject to a finite number of state-dependent impulses ∆y(τi(x)) = Ji(x), i = 1, …, m. Our approach is based on the reformulation of the problem as a distributional differential equation and on the Schauder fixed point theorem. The functionals τi and Ji need not be Lipschitz continuous nor bounded. As a direct consequence, we obtain an existence result for problem with fixed-time impulses.
