Abstract

In this paper, sufficient conditions are obtained for nonoscillation/oscillation of all solutions of a class of higher-order difference equations involving the generalized difference operator of the form $\Delta _{a}^{k}(p_{n}\Delta _{a}^{2}y_{n})=f(n,y_{n},\Delta_{a}y_{n},\Delta _{a}^{2}y_{n},...,\Delta _{a}^{k+1}y_{n}),$ where $\Delta _{a}$ is generalized difference operator which is defined as $\Delta _{a}y_{n}=y_{n+1}-ay_{n}, a\neq{0}.$

Summary

Introduction

We study nonoscillation and oscillation of solutions of a class of higher-order difference equations of the form. In [4], Agarval et al established sufficient conditions for the oscillation of all solutions of the even order difference equations of the form. In [12], Popenda obtained sufficient conditions for nonoscillation/oscillation of solutions of a class of nonlinear nonhomogeneous second order difference equations involving generalized difference of the form. In [10], Parhi and Panda obtained sufficient conditions for nonoscillation /oscillation of all solutions of a class of nonlinear third order difference equations of the form. Our purpose is to establish oscillation and nonoscillation criteria for a class of higher-order difference equations involving generalized difference operator of the form Eq (1)
