On the Existence of Periodic Solutions to Certain Impulsive Differential Equations C. Cooke and J. Kroll The authors study here an impulsive differential systems which appears to have no periodic solutions. Continuous manifolds of initial vectors are found for which it is proven that the trajectory emanating from each initial vector is unstable; hence, non-periodic. It is also established that a particular type of impulsive periodic solution, the so-called simple periodic motion, can not exist.
