A Poincar\'e-Birkhoff theorem for multivalued successor maps with applications to periodic superlinear Hamiltonian systems

We provide a new version of the Poincar\'e-Birkhoff theorem for possibly multivalued successor maps associated with planar non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems. As an application, we prove the existence of periodic and subharmonic solutions of the scalar second order equation $\ddot x + \lambda g(t,x) = 0$, for $\lambda>0$ sufficiently small, with $g(t,x)$ having a superlinear growth at infinity, without requiring the existence of an equilibrium point.

A Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem for Hamiltonian flows on nonconvex domains

We present a higher-dimensional version of the Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem which applies to Poincaré time maps of Hamiltonian systems. The maps under consideration are neither required to be close to the identity nor to have a monotone twist. The annulus is replaced by the product of an $N$-dimensional torus and the interior of a $(N-1)$-dimensional (not necessarily convex) embedded sphere; on the other hand, the classical boundary twist condition is replaced by an avoiding rays condition.
