On bounded nonoscillatory solutions of third-order nonlinear differential equations (Q2268548)

The authors consider the third order non-linear differential equation with quasi-derivatives of the form \[ \left(\frac{1}{r(t)}\left(\frac{1}{r(t)} x'(t)\right)'\right)'+ q(t)f(x(t))= 0,\quad t \geq a, \tag{1} \] where \(r,p,q \in C\left( {[a,\infty ),\mathbb R } \right)\), \(r(t) > 0\), \(p(t) > 0\), \(q(t)> 0\) on \([a,\infty)\), \(f\in C(\mathbb R,\mathbb R)\), \(f(u)u>0\) for \(u\neq0\). They prove some results related to the asymptotic behavior of solutions of (1). Some examples are provided to illustrate the feasibility of the results.
