Abstract: The similarity differential equation $$ with $$ is considered. This differential equation appears in the study of mixed convection boundary-layer flows over a vertical surface embedded in a porous medium. In order to prove the existence of solutions satisfying the boundary conditions $f(0)=ageq0$, $f^{\prime }(0)=bgeq0$ and $f^{\prime }(+infty)=0$ or $1$, we use shooting and consider the initial value problem consisting of the differential equation and the initial conditions $f(0)=a$, $f^{\prime }(0)=b$ and $f^{″}(0)=c$. For $$, we prove that there exists a unique solution such that $f^{\prime }(+infty)=0$, and infinitely many solutions such that $f^{\prime }(+infty)=1$. For $$, we give only partial results and show some differences with the previous case.
