Abstract

Abstract This paper is concerned with oscillatory behavior of a certain class of second-order neutral delay dynamic equations ( r ( t ) [ x ( t ) + p ( t ) x ( τ ( t ) ) ] Δ ) Δ + q ( t ) x ( δ ( t ) ) = 0 , on a time scale T with sup T = ∞ , where 0 ≤ p ( t ) ≤ p 0 < ∞ . Some new results are presented that not only complement and improve those related results in the literature, but also improve some known results for a second-order delay dynamic equation without a neutral term. Further, the main results improve some related results for second-order neutral differential equations. MSC:34K11, 34N05, 39A10.

Summary

Introduction

There has been an increasing interest in obtaining sufficient conditions for oscillatory or nonoscillatory behavior of different classes of differential equations and dynamic equations on time scales; we refer the reader to the papers [ – ]. Regarding oscillation of second-order neutral differential equations, Grammatikopoulos et al [ ] established that the condition q(s) – p(s – δ) ds = ∞
