The purpose of the present paper is to establish some new criteria for the classification of the sublinear differential equation as of the nonlinear limit circle type or of the nonlinear limit point type. The criteria presented here generalize some known results in the literature.

The authors study the nonlinear limit-point and limit-circle properties for second-order nonlinear damped differential equations of the form(a(t)|y'|p-1y')'+b(t)|y'|q-1y'+r(t)|y|λ-1y=0,where0<q≤p≤λ,a(t)>0, andr(t)>0. Examples to illustrate the main results are included.

SynopsisLet the coefficient q be real-valued on the half-line [0, ∞) and let q′ be locally absolutely continuous on [0, ∞). The ordinary symmetric differential expressions M and M2 are determined byIt has been shown in a previous paper by the authors that if for non-negative numbers k and X the coefficient q satisfies the conditionthen M is limit-point and M2 is limit–2 at ∞.This paper is concerned with showing that for powers of the independent variable x the condition (*) is best possible in order that both M and M2 should have the classification at ∞ given above.
