Abstract

This note deals with a generalization of the famous Lyapunov inequality giving a necessary condition for the existence of solutions to a boundary value problem for an ordinary differential equation. The problem we consider is closely related to a well-known problem on an asymptotic behavior of positive solutions of a class of semilinear elliptic equations of nearly critical Sobolev growth.
