摘要:
We study the second order Emden-Fowler equation (E) y"+a(x)\y\(gamma-1) y=0, gamma > 0 where a(x) is positive and absolutely continuous on (0, infinity). Let psi(x) = x((gamma+3)/2+delta) where 3 is any positive number. Theorem. Let gamma not equal 1. If psi(x) satisfies. (a) lim(x-->infinity)psi(x) k > 0 and (b) f(infinity) \ psi'(x) \ dx <infinity, then Eq. (E) is nonoscillatory. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.
