Existence of solutions of a boundary value problem on the half-line to second order nonlinear delay differential equations

By using the Schauder fixed point theorem, we establish a result for the existence of solutions of a boundary value problem on the half-line to second order nonlinear delay differential equations. We also present the application of our result to the special case of second order nonlinear ordinary differential equations as well as to a specific class of second order nonlinear delay differential equations. Moreover, we give a general example which demonstrates the applicability of our result.
