The following differential equation is considered: \[ y=\alpha_0 p(t)\varphi(y), \tag{1} \] where \(\alpha_{0}\in\{-1;1\},\) \(p:[a,\omega[~\to~]0,+\infty[\) \((-\infty<a<\omega \leq +\infty)\) is a continuous function, \(\varphi_0\colon\Delta_{Y_0}~\to~]0,+\infty[\) -- is a twice continuously differentiable on \(\Delta_{Y_0}\) function for which \[ \varphi'_0(y)\neq0 \mbox{ as } y \in~\Delta_{Y_0}, \ \ \lim\limits_{\overset{y \rightarrow Y_0}{y\in\,\Delta_{Y_0}}}\varphi_0(y)\in\{0,+\infty\},\quad\lim\limits_{\overset{y\rightarrow Y_0}{y \in\, \Delta_{Y_0}}}\frac{\displaystyle{\varphi_0(y)\varphi_0(y)}}{\displaystyle{\left(\varphi_0'(y)\right)^2}}=1.\tag{2} \] Here \(Y_0\in\{0, \pm \infty \},\) \(\Delta_{Y_0}\) -- is some one-sided neighborhood of \( Y_0\). From conditions (2) it follows that function \(\varphi_0\) and its derivatives of the first order are rapidly varying functions as \(y \rightarrow Y_0\). For \(Y_0=+\infty\) and \(Z_0=+\infty\), the function \(\varphi_0\) and its first-order derivative belong to the class of functions \(\Gamma\) introduced by Hahn (see, for example, [\textit{N. H. Bingham} et al., Regular variation. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge (1987; Zbl 0617.26001)]). By the change of variables, the authors extend the class \(\Gamma\) to a class \(\Gamma_0(Y_0)\) and formulate the properties of functions of such classes. It is clear that the function \(\varphi_0\) and its first-order derivative belong to the class of functions \(\Gamma_0(Y_0)\) as \(y \rightarrow Y_0\). The authors establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of \(P_{\omega}(Y_0,\lambda_0)\)- solutions of equation (1) in a special case where \(\lambda_0=\pm\infty\), as well as the asymptotic representations of these solutions and their first derivatives as \( t \uparrow \omega \) with using the a priori asymptotic properties of these solutions. The main results are given in the Theorems 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3. In Theorem 2.1, necessary conditions for the existence of \(P_\omega (Y_0,\pm\infty) \)-solutions of the equation (1) are obtained. In Theorems 3.2 and 3.3, sufficient conditions for the existence of \( P_\omega (Y_0,\pm\infty) \)-solutions of the equation (1) and the number of such solutions are found. In my opinion, the results presented in the article are very important for the further study of asymptotic representations of solutions of second and higher-order differential equations with rapidly varying nonlinearities.
