These necessary and sufficient conditions consist of functional equations for F and of a smooth extensibility condition. Illustrative examples are presented to demonstrate this result. In these examples, the mentioned functional equations for F are related to the functional equations for geodesics, to Jensen's equation, to the functional equations for conic sections and to Neuman's result for linear ordinary differential equations.8 pages, LatexClassical Analysis and ODEsDynamical Systems39B52; 34A12The functional formulation of second-order ordinary differential equationstext
