Abstract

We study asymptotic properties of a higher-order, nonlinear, Emden-Fowler-type differential equation.We investigate asymptotics of all possible solutions of the equation in the cases of regular and singular nonlinearity for n=3 , 4.We use the method of change of variables,which allows one to reduce the initial equation of order n to a dynamical system on the (n-1)-dimensional compact sphere.
