Abstract

We study the existence of solutions of second-order nonlinear differential equations. It is shown that the second-order nonlinear differential equation \(x^{\prime \prime }=f(t,x,x^{\prime })\) has a positive (and so non-oscillatory) solution asymptotic to the function \(\varphi (t)=t\) at \( \infty \) and satisfies the initial condition \(x(0)=0\).
