Fifth Order

In our previous consideration in (1) of the constant-coefficient fifth-order differential equation:an attempt was made to identify (though not exhaustively) different sufficient conditions on a1,…,a5 for the instability of the trivial solution x = 0 of (1·1). It was our expectation that the conditions so identified could be generalized in some form or other to equations (1·1) in which a1,…,a5 were not necessarily constants, thereby giving rise to instability theorems for some non-linear fifth-order differential equations; and this turned out in fact to be so except only for the case:with R0 = R0(a1, a2, a3, a4) > 0 sufficiently large, about which we were unable at the time to derive any worthwhile generalization to any equation (1·1) in which a1, …,a5 are not all constants.

1. Consider the constant-coefficient fifth-order differential equation:It is known from the general theory that the trivial solution of (1·1) is unstable if, and only if, the associated (auxiliary) equation:has at least one root with a positive real part. The existence of such a root naturally depends on (though not always all of) the coefficients a1, a2,…, a5. For example, ifit is clear from a consideration of the fact that the sum of the roots of (1·2) equals ( – a1) that at least one root of (1·2) has a positive real part for arbitrary values of a2,…, a5. A similar consideration, combined with the fact that the product of the roots of (1·2) equals ( – a5) will show that at least one root of (1·2) has a positive real part iffor arbitrary a2, a3 and a4. The condition a1 = 0 here in (1·4) is however superfluous whenfor then X(0) = a5 < 0 and X(R) > 0 if R > 0 is sufficiently large thus showing that there is a positive real root of (1·2) subject to (1·5) and for arbitrary a1, a2, a3 and a4.

Using the averaging theory of first order, we provide sufficient conditions for the existence of limit cycles of this equation.

The purpose of this paper is to obtain a set of sufficient conditions for “global asymptotic stability” of the trivial solution x = 0 of the differential equation1.1using a Lyapunov function which is substantially different from similar functions used in [2], [3] and [4], for similar differential equations. The functions f1, f2 and f3 are real - valued and are smooth enough to ensure the existence of the solutions of (1.1) on [0, ∞). The dot indicates differentiation with respect to t. We are taking a and b to be some positive parameters.

AbstractIn this paper, we are concerned with the oscillation properties of the third order differential equation $$ \left( {b(t) \left( {[a(t)x'(t)'} \right)^\gamma } \right)^\prime + q(t)x^\gamma (t) = 0, \gamma > 0 $$. Some new sufficient conditions which insure that every solution oscillates or converges to zero are established. The obtained results extend the results known in the literature for γ = 1. Some examples are considered to illustrate our main results.

Sufficient conditions for the existence of at least one solution of above problem are established. Some known results are improved.

In 1950, Wintner (11) showed that if the function f(x) is continuous on the half-line [0, ∞) and, in a certain sense, is “ small when x is large ” then the differential equationdoes not have L2 solutions, where the function y(x) satisfying (1) is called an L2 solution if
