In this paper we consider the homoclinic orbits for a class of second order Hamiltonian systems of the form

$ \ddot{q}(t)-\lambda q(t)+\nabla W(t,q(t)) = 0 $

where

$ \lambda>0 $

is a parameter,

$ \frac{|\nabla W(t,x)|}{|x|} $

asymptotically tends to a constant as

$ |x|\rightarrow\infty $

and

$ |t|\rightarrow\infty $

. Via the variational method, two new theorems are proved.

Keywords: Homoclinic orbit, Hamiltonian systems, asymptotically quadratic, variational method, concentration-compactness principle.
