Existence of periodic solutions for Rayleigh equations with state-dependent delay

Jehad O. Alzabut, Cemil Tunc

Abstract:
We establish sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic solutions for a Rayleigh-type equation with state-dependent delay. Our approach is based on the continuation theorem in degree theory, and some analysis techniques. An example illustrates that our approach to this problem is new.
