On the oscillation of third-order quasi-linear neutral functional differential equations

Ethiraju ThandapaniTongxing Li — 2011

Archivum Mathematicum

The aim of this paper is to study asymptotic properties of the third-order quasi-linear neutral functional differential equation [ a ( t ) ( [ x ( t ) + p ( t ) x ( δ ( t ) ) ] ' ' ) α ] ' + q ( t ) x α ( τ ( t ) ) = 0 , E where α > 0 , 0 p ( t ) p 0 < and δ ( t ) t . By using Riccati transformation, we establish some sufficient conditions which ensure that every solution of () is either oscillatory or converges to zero. These results improve some known results in the literature. Two examples are given to illustrate the main results.

Oscillatory and asymptotic behaviour of perturbed quasilinear second order difference equations

Ethiraju ThandapaniL. Ramuppillai — 1998

Archivum Mathematicum

This paper deals with oscillatory and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of second order quasilinear difference equation of the form Δ ( a n - 1 | Δ y n - 1 | α - 1 Δ y n - 1 ) + F ( n , y n ) = G ( n , y n , Δ y n ) , n N ( n 0 ) ( E ) where α > 0 . Some sufficient conditions for all solutions of (E) to be oscillatory are obtained. Asymptotic behaviour of nonoscillatory solutions of (E) are also considered.

Martin BohnerSrinivasan GeethaSrinivasan SelvarangamEthiraju Thandapani — 2018

Annales Universitatis Mariae Curie-Skłodowska, sectio A – Mathematica

The aim of this paper is to investigate the oscillatory and asymptotic behavior of solutions of a third-order delay difference equation. By using comparison theorems, we deduce oscillation of the difference equation from its relation to certain associated first-order delay difference equations or inequalities. Examples are given to illustrate the main results.

Existence of nonoscillatory solutions to third order neutral type difference equations with delay and advanced arguments

In this paper, we present several sufficient conditions for the existence of nonoscillatory solutions to the following third order neutral type difference equation Δ 3 ( x n + a n x n - l + b n x n + m ) + p n x n - k - q n x n + r = 0 , n n 0 via Banach contraction principle. Examples are provided to illustrate the main results. The results obtained in this paper extend and complement some of the existing results.

Oscillation properties of second-order quasilinear difference equations with unbounded delay and advanced neutral terms

We obtain some new sufficient conditions for the oscillation of the solutions of the second-order quasilinear difference equations with delay and advanced neutral terms. The results established in this paper are applicable to equations whose neutral coefficients are unbounded. Thus, the results obtained here are new and complement some known results reported in the literature. Examples are also given to illustrate the applicability and strength of the obtained conditions over the known ones.

Oscillation theorems for third order nonlinear delay difference equations

Sufficient conditions are obtained for the third order nonlinear delay difference equation of the form Δ ( a n ( Δ ( b n ( Δ y n ) α ) ) ) + q n f ( y σ ( n ) ) = 0 to have property ( A ) or to be oscillatory. These conditions improve and complement many known results reported in the literature. Examples are provided to illustrate the importance of the main results.

Oscillation of second-order quasilinear retarded difference equations via canonical transform

We study the oscillatory behavior of the second-order quasi-linear retarded difference equation Δ ( p ( n ) ( Δ y ( n ) ) α ) + η ( n ) y β ( n - k ) = 0 under the condition n = n 0 p - 1 α ( n ) < (i.e., the noncanonical form). Unlike most existing results, the oscillatory behavior of this equation is attained by transforming it into an equation in the canonical form. Examples are provided to show the importance of our main results.

Ethiraju ThandapaniP. SundaramJohn R. GraefA. MicianoPaul W. Spikes — 1995

Archivum Mathematicum

The authors consider the difference equation Δ m [ y n - p n y n - k ] + δ q n y σ ( n + m - 1 ) = 0 ( * ) where m 2 , δ = ± 1 , k N 0 = { 0 , 1 , 2 , } , Δ y n = y n + 1 - y n , q n > 0 , and { σ ( n ) } is a sequence of integers with σ ( n ) n and lim n σ ( n ) = . They obtain results on the classification of the set of nonoscillatory solutions of ( * ) and use a fixed point method to show the existence of solutions having certain types of asymptotic behavior. Examples illustrating the results are included.
