AbstractA new oscillation criterion is given for general superlinear ordinary differential equations of second order of the form x″(t)+ a(t)f[x(t)]=0, where a ∈ C([t0∞,)), f∈C(R) with yf(y)>0 for y≠0 and and f is continously differentiable on R-{0} with f'(y)≥0 for all y≠O. In the special case of the differential equation (γ > 1) this criterion leads to an oscillation result due to Wong [9].

A new result is obtained for the oscillation of second order linear ordinary differential equations with alternating coefficients. This oscillation result extends a recent oscillation criterion due to Kamenev [.Mat. Zametki 23 (1978), 249–251].

A new oscillation criterion is established for a certain class of second-order nonlinear differential equation x"(t)-b(t)x'(t)+c(t)g(x)=0, x"(t)+c(t)g(x)=0 that is different from most known ones. Some applications of the result obtained are also presented. Our results are sharper than some previous ones.

This paper is concerned with asymptotic analysis of positive decreasing solutions of the secondorder quasilinear ordinary differential equation (E) (p(t)?(|x'(t)|))'=q(t)?(x(t)), with the regularly varying coefficients p, q, ?, ?. An application of the theory of regular variation gives the possibility of determining the precise information about asymptotic behavior at infinity of solutions of equation (E) such that lim t?? x(t)=0, lim t?? p(t)?(-x'(t))=?.

When difference schemes with uniformly spaced gridpoints are applied to second order ordinary differential equations with a regular singular point, it is often the case that the resulting numerical approximation does not have a uniform asymptotic expansion. As a consequence, postprocessing, such as h2-extrapolation is not an option. This paper examines the cause of this phenomenon and finds that the existence of such expansions requires the discretization of the boundary conditions at the singular point to be compatible with the discretization of the differential equation. In addition, it is shown how an understanding of the need for compatible discretization can assist in the construction of schemes for several classes of equations that arise when symmetry is used to reduce partial differential equations to ordinary differential equations with a regular singular point.

In this paper, a set of non-standard discrete models were constructed for the solution of non-homogenous second-order ordinary differential equation. We applied the method of non-local approximation and renormalization of the discretization functions to some problems and the result shows that the schemes behave qualitatively like the original equation.

By using the generalized variational principle and Riccati technique, a new oscillation criterion is established for second-order quasilinear differential equation with an oscillatory forcing term, which improves and generalizes some of new results in the literature.

Abstract.We study the semilinear differential equation u″ + F(t,u,u′)=0 on a half-line. Under different growth conditions on the function F, equations with globally defined solutions asymptotic to lines are characterized. Both fixed initial data and fixed asymptote are considered.
