A new proof is given of the existence of periodic solutions of parabolic problems and sytems of ordinary differential equations satisfying a comparison lemma by constructing a fixed point of an associated operator. The construction may be computationally inefficient; thus it is proved that Newton's method is applicable. The arguments also yield results about the number of periodic solutions. 3 tables.
