In this paper we prove two results. The first is an extension of the result of G. D. Jones [4]: (A) Every nontrivial solution for $$\left\}\begin{array}{c}{(-1)}^n{u}^{\left(2n\right)}+f(t,u)=0,\text{in}(\alpha ,\infty ),u^{\left(i\right)}\left(\xi \right)=0,i=0,1,\cdots ,n-1,\text{and}\xi \in (\alpha ,\infty ),\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ must be unbounded, provided $f(t,z)z\ge 0$, in $E\times ℝ$ and for every bounded subset $I$, $f(t,z)$ is bounded in $E\times I$. (B) Every bounded solution for ${(-1)}^n{u}^{\left(2n\right)}+f(t,u)=0$, in $ℝ$, must be constant, provided $f(t,z)z\ge 0$ in $ℝ\times ℝ$ and for every bounded subset $I$, $f(t,z)$ is bounded in $ℝ\times I$.

In this paper we study asymptotic behavior of solutions of second order neutral functional differential equation of the form $${\left(x\left(t\right)+px(t-\tau )\right)}^{\text{'}\text{'}}+f(t,x\left(t\right))=0.$$ We present conditions under which all nonoscillatory solutions are asymptotic to $at+b$ as $t\to \infty$, with $a,b\in R$. The obtained results extend those that are known for equation $$u^{\text{'}\text{'}}+f(t,u)=0.$$

We give an equivalence criterion on property A and property B for delay third order linear differential equations. We also give comparison results on properties A and B between linear and nonlinear equations, whereby we only suppose that nonlinearity has superlinear growth near infinity.

We address some questions concerning a class of differential variational inequalities with finite delays. The existence of exponential decay solutions and a global attractor for the associated multivalued semiflow is proved.

Asymptotic behavior of solutions of an area-preserving crystalline curvature flow equation is investigated. In this equation, the area enclosed by the solution polygon is preserved, while its total interfacial crystalline energy keeps on decreasing. In the case where the initial polygon is essentially admissible and convex, if the maximal existence time is finite, then vanishing edges are essentially admissible edges. This is a contrast to the case where the initial polygon is admissible and convex:...

We prove, by means of Malliavin calculus, the convergence in $L^2$ of some properly renormalized weighted quadratic variations of bi-fractional Brownian motion (biFBM) with parameters $H$ and $K$, when $H\<1/4$ and $K\in (0,1]$.
