This paper concerns autonomous boundary value problems for 1D semilinear hyperbolic PDEs. For time-periodic classical solutions, which satisfy a certain non-resonance condition, we show the following: If the PDEs are continuous with respect to the space variable $x$ and $C^\infty$-smooth with respect to the unknown function $u$, then the solution i...

We show that the phenomenon of forced frequency locking happens similarly to the analogous phenomena known for ODEs or parabolic PDEs. However, the proofs are essentially more diffic...
