The paper discusses the Dirichlet problem \[x^{2n-1}y= \left [ xy +\lambda y^2\right ]^n, \qquad y(0)=1, \; y(x_0)=0 \; \; (x_0>0) \] with special emphasis on some particular choices of the parameters \(n\) and \(\lambda\), leading to important physical models. The main results concern the uniqueness and the existence of the solutions. The approach of the existence part relies on Schauder's fixed point theorem.
