Abstract: In this paper we present conditions ensuring the existence and localization of lower and upper functions of the periodic boundary value problem $u"+k u=f(t,u)$, $ u(0)=u(2 \pi)$, $u'(0)=u'(2\pi)$, $k\in\R$, $k\ne0.$ These functions are constructed as solutions of some related generalized linear problems and can be nonsmooth in general.
Keywords: second order nonlinear ordinary differential equation, periodic problem, lower and upper functions, generalized linear differential equation
