An oscillation criterion for second order sublinear differential equations

From MaRDI portal





The differential equation under consideration is (1) \(-y=pf(y)\), where \(p\in C[0,\infty)\), \(f\in C(-\infty,\infty)\), \(yf(y)>0\) for \(y\neq 0\), \(f\) is nondecreasing, and \(f\) satisfies a general sublinearity condition. The main theorem is a sufficient condition for all continuable solutions of (1) to be oscillatory at \(\infty\). This generalizes earlier results of Y. Chen, I. V. Kamenev, Ch. G. Philos, and the first author, mostly for the case \(f(y)=| y|^ a\text{ sgn }y\), \(0<a<1\).
