Abstract

We consider the nonlinear equation t2x'' + g(x) = 0, where g(x) satisfies xg(x) > 0 for x \ne 0, but is not assumed to be sublinear or superlinear. We study the problem whether all nontrivial solutions of the equation are oscillatory in some critical cases.

We consider the nonlinear equation t2x'' + g(x) = 0, where g(x) satisfies xg(x) > 0 for x \ne 0, but is not assumed to be sublinear or superlinear. We study the problem whether all nontrivial solutions of the equation are oscillatory in some critical cases.
