Existence of multiple positive periodic solutions for differential equation with state-dependent delays

By utilizing a fixed point theorem in cones, we present some sufficient conditions which guarantee the existence of multiple positive periodic solutions for a class of differential equations with state-dependent delays. Our results extend and improve some previous results.
