Original abstract

We establish asymptotic formulae for regularly varying solutions of the half-linear differential equation $$(r(t)|y'|^{\alpha-1}\sgn y')'=p(t)|y|^{\alpha-1}\sgn y,$$ where $r,p$ are positive continuous functions on $[a,\infty)$ and $\alpha\in(1,\infty)$. The results can be understood in several ways: Some open problems posed in the literature are solved. Results for linear differential equations are generalized; some of the observations are new even in the linear case. A refinement on information about behavior of solutions in standard asymptotic classes is provided. A precise description of regularly varying solutions which are known to exist is given. Regular variation of all positive solutions is proved.
