A number of sufficient conditions for stability or strong stability, as used in the context of Hamiltonian systems, are found for the differential equation where the continuous function f(t) is periodic ω in t, D = d/dt and p(s), q(s) are real monic polynomials having special properties which allow the differential equation to be transformed into a canonical system of k second order equations.
