Abstract
This paper is concerned with the problem of deciding conditions on the coefficient q (t) and the nonlinear term g (x) which ensure that all nontrivial solutions of the equation (|x β²|^Ξ±β1^x β²)β² + q (t)g (x) = 0, Ξ± > 0, are nonoscillatory. The nonlinear term g (x) is not imposed no assumption except for the continuity and the sign condition xg (x) > 0 if x β 0. In our problem, it is important to examine the relation between the decay of q (t) and the growth of g (x). Our main result extends some nonoscillation theorem for the generalised EmdenβFowler equation. Proof is given by means of some Liapunov functions and phaseβplane analysis. A simple example is includes to show that the monotonicity of g (x) is not essential in our problem. Finally, elliptic equations with the m βLaplacian operator are discussed as an application to our results. (Β© 2008 WILEYβVCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
