The impact of unbounded swings of the forcing term on the asymptotic behavior of functional equations. (English) Zbl 1045.34051
Summary: Necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained to force all solutions of the equation $(r(t)y'(t))^{(n-1)} + a(t)h(y(g(t))) = f(t)$ to behave in peculiar ways. These results are then extended to the elliptic equation $| x| ^{p-1} \Delta y(| x| ) + a(| x| )h(y(g(| x| ))) = f(| x| )$ where $$\Delta$$ is the Laplace operator and $$p \geq 3$$ is an integer.
