Altshuller multiplier conjecture for periodic solutions of Lurye systems

Let a Lurye system have a time-invariant nonlinearity ϕ∈Φti\boldsymbol{\phi}\in\Phi^{ti}, with r1=0r_1=0 and a nonzero periodic input r2r_2 of period T>0T>0. An Altshuller multiplier is a multiplier M∈AT\boldsymbol{M}\in\mathcal{A}_T suitable for G\boldsymbol{G}, or for 1/k+G1/k+\boldsymbol{G} when ϕ∈Φksr\boldsymbol{\phi}\in\Phi^{sr}_k for some k>0k>0.

Altshuller multiplier conjecture. If such a multiplier exists, then there exists a nonzero periodic solution with period TT, which need not be unique or attracting.

The conjecture seeks a general periodic-response result for Lurye systems under periodic excitation. The surrounding results establish related conclusions under stronger hypotheses, but the proposed general statement is presented as unresolved.
