This paper is concerned with a class of even order nonlinear differential equations of the form d d t | x ( t ) + p ( t ) x ( τ ( t ) ) ( n - 1 ) | α - 1 ( x ( t ) + p ( t ) x ( τ ( t ) ) ) ( n - 1 ) + F ( t , x ( g ( t ) ) ) = 0 , where n is even and t t 0 . By using the generalized Riccati transformation and the averaging technique, new oscillation criteria are obtained which are either extensions of or complementary to a number of existing results. Our results are more general and sharper than some previous results even for second order equations.
