BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM FOR r 2 d 2 f / dr 2 + f = f 3 ( I ) : EXISTENCE AND UNIQUENESS

We study the equation r2d2f/dr2 + f = f 3 with the boundary conditions f(1)= 0, f(∞)= 1, and f(r) > 0 for 1< r <∞. The existence of the solution is proved using a topological shooting argument. And the uniqueness is proved by a variation method. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. 34B15, 34D05, 34E10, 81T13.
