On the monotonicity criteria of the period function of potential systems
  The purpose of this paper is to study various monotonicity conditions of the period function $T(c)$ (energy-dependent) for potential systems $\ddot x + g(x)=0$ with a center at the origin 0. We had before identified a family of new criteria noted by $(C_n)$ which are sometimes thinner than those previously known ({\it Period function and characterizations of Isochronous potentials}\quad arXiv:1109.4611). This fact will be illustrated by examples.
