The equation to be considered is of the typewhere p (x) is continuous for all real values of x, even, and periodic. It is no restriction to suppose that the period is π, and this assumption will be made, so that the equation is virtually Hill's equation.

Solutions of the second order non-linear differential equation of spherical diffusion flames have been obtained for the range of conditions of experimental interest. Deviations from the simplified exponential solution are presented in a form suitable for their direct evaluation. Some recent contributions to the theory of the method are discussed.

A proof is given for the existence of at least one stable periodic limit cycle solution for the polynomial non-linear differential equation of the formin some cases where the Levinson-Smith criteria are not directly applicable.

This paper contains the substance of investigations made for the most part many years ago, but recalled to me during last summer by a question started by Sir W. Thomson, connected with Laplace's theory of the tides.A comparison is instituted between the results of various processes employed to reduce the general linear differential equation of the second order to a non-linear equation of the first order. The relation between these equations seems to be most easily shown by the following obvious process, which I lit upon while seeking to integrate the reduced equation by finding how the arbitrary constant ought to be involved in its integral.
