Oscillation theorems for second order nonlinear delay inequalities
Oscillation criteria are given for the second order sublinear non-autonomous differential equation. (r(t) (x)x′(t))′ + q(t)g(x(t)) = (t). These criteria extends and improves earlier oscillation criteria of Kamenev, Kura, Philos and Wong. Oscillation criteria are also given for second order sublinear damped non-autonomous differential equations.
In this paper, sufficient conditions have been obtained for oscillation of solutions of a class of th order linear neutral delay-differential equations. Some of these results have been used to study oscillatory behaviour of solutions of a class of boundary value problems for neutral hyperbolic partial differential equations.
In this paper we compare the asymptotic behaviour of the advanced functional equation with the asymptotic behaviour of the set of ordinary functional equations On the basis of this comparison principle the sufficient conditions for property (B) of equation (*) are deduced.
The Riccati equation method is used for study the oscillatory and non oscillatory behavior of solutions of systems of two first order linear two by two dimensional matrix differential equations. An integral and an interval oscillatory criteria are obtained. Two non oscillatory criteria are obtained as well. On an example, one of the obtained oscillatory criteria is compared with some well known results.
The Riccati equation method is used to study the oscillatory and non-oscillatory behavior of solutions of linear four-dimensional Hamiltonian systems. One oscillatory and three non-oscillatory criteria are proved. Examples of the obtained results are compared with some well known ones.
