Synopsis

Schaefer's fixed-point theorem is used to obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of a periodic solution of the non-linear differential equation f(D)x+BMg(D)x = p. The most significant feature of these conditions is a geometrical restriction on the range of the matrix M which is the same as the elliptic ball criterion encountered in stability theory. The extension of the results to delay-differential equations with constant time lags is also discussed.
