Abstract

In this paper, we prove existence results for periodic boundary value problems concerning the n^t^h -order differential equationx^(^n^)(t)=f(t,x(t),x^'(t),...,x^(^n^-^1^)(t)),t@?[0,1]. Our method is based upon the coincidence degree theory of Mawhin. The results obtained are new. Examples are given to illustrate the main results.
