Synopsis

This paper deals with a class of time-periodic Hamiltonian systems obtained by a time-dependent perturbation from an autonomous system with a singularity at q = 0 in configuration space. It is shown that, T being the period of the perturbation, nondegenerate families of T-periodic orbits in the unperturbed problem branch off into a certain number of T-periodic orbits for the perturbed problem.
