Fix any $t_0\ge 0$ and compare $y=R$ with $y=0$. The quotient required in a global Lipschitz condition in the dependent variable isConsequently,It is nevertheless locally Lipschitz in $y$: for $|y|,|v|\le R$,Thus the Picard-Lindelöf theorem gives local existence and uniqueness for the initial value problem; the remaining work establishes existence on the entire half-line for the specified small data.
