Basing ourselves on the subsolution and supersolution method we investigate the existence and properties of solutions of the following class of elliptic differential equations $div(a(||x||)\nabla u(x)) + f(x,u(x)) + g(||x||)k(x\cdot\nabla u(x)) = 0,$ $x\in\mathbb{R}^{n},||x||>R.$ Our main result concernes the behavior of solution at infinity.
Keywords: Positive evanescent solutions, nonlinear elliptic equation, asymptotic behavior., subsolution and supersolution method.
