In this paper, we study the existence of homoclinic solutions for a class of fourth order differential equations. By using variational methods, the existence and the non-existence of nontrivial homoclinic solutions are obtained, depending on a parameter.

We show that sparse and Carleson coefficients are equivalent for every countable collection of Borel sets and hence, in particular, for dyadic rectangles, the case relevant to the theory of bi-parameter singular integrals. The key observation is that a dual refomulation by I. E. Verbitsky for Carleson coefficients over dyadic cubes holds also for Carleson coefficients over general sets.
