Abstract

We show the existence of the positive solution for the system of the following nonlinear wave equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions $$u_{tt}-u_{xx}+av^+=s{\phi}_{00}+f$$, $$v_{tt}-v_{xx}+bu^+=t{\phi}_{00}+g$$, $$u({\pm}\frac{\pi}{2},t)=v({\pm}\frac{\pi}{2},t)=0$$, where $u_+=max\{u,0\}$, s, $t{\in}R$, ${\phi}_{00}$ is the eigenfunction corresponding to the positive eigenvalue ${\lambda}_{00}=1$ of the eigenvalue problem $u_{tt}-u_{xx}={\lambda}_{mn}u$ with $u({\pm}\frac{\pi}{2},t)=0$, $u(x,t+{\pi})=u(x,t)=u(-x,t)=u(x,-t)$ and f, g are ${\pi}$-periodic, even in x and t and bounded functions in $[-\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2}]{\times}[-\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2}]$ with $\int_{-\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}f{\phi}_{00}=\int_{-\frac{\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}g{\phi}_{00}=0$.
