Abstract/Description
A Hamiltonian system is studied which has a term approaching a constant at an exponential rate at infinity. A minimax argument is used to show that the equation has a positive homoclinic solution. The proof employs the interaction between translated solutions of the corresponding homogeneous equation. What distinguishes this result from its few predecessors is that the equation has a nonhomogeneous nonlinearity.
