Abstract

In a recent paper, the author showed that for certain symmetric bisuperlinear equations, cosine-like boundary behaviours will not yield symmetric solutions [1]. In this paper, we attack the adiabatic invariant problem by showing that, for these strongly nonlinear oscillators, the adiabatic invariant is intimately related to z′(0;∈) for a family of solutions.
