The nonlinear eigenvalue problem

for 0 ≤ x < ∞, fixed p ∈ (1, ∞), and with y′(0)/y(0) specified, is studied under conditions on q related to those of Brinck and Molanov. Topics include Sturmian results, connections between problems on finite intervals and the half-line, and variational principles.
