Such estimates are then used to establish, via the Poincaré–Birkhoff fixed point theorem, new multiplicity results for T-periodic solutions of unforced planar Hamiltonian systems Ju′=∇uH(t,u) and unforced undamped scalar second order equations x″+g(t,x)=0. In particular, by means of the Landesman–Lazer condition, we obtain sharp conclusions when the system is resonant at infinity.</p>10aMultiple periodic solutions10aPoincaré–Birkhoff theorem10aResonance10aRotation number1 aBoscaggin, Alberto1 aGarrione, Maurizio  uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0362546X11001817
