Homoclinic orbits for a class of first-order nonperiodic asymptotically quadratic Hamiltonian systems with spectrum point zero

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of homoclinic orbits for a class of first-order nonperiodic Hamiltonian systems. By applying two recent critical point theorems for strongly indefinite functionals, we give some new criteria to guarantee that Hamiltonian systems with asymptotically quadratic terms and spectrum point zero have at least one and a finite number of pairs of homoclinic orbits under some adequate conditions, respectively.
