Classification of positive solutions of generalized functional-differential equations. (English) Zbl 1042.34562

Summary: In this paper, we give a classification of nonoscillatory solutions of the quasilinear differential equation \((*)\) \((\phi(y'(t)))'+f(t,y(g(t)))=0\), \(t\geq a\). Under suitable conditions on \(f\) and \(g\), we obtain a classification of nonoscillatory solutions of \((*)\) according to their asymptotic behavior as \(t\to \infty\). We also find some necessary and sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence of nonoscillatory and oscillatory solutions for the above equation.
