Abstract

The objective in this paper is to study the oscillatory and asymptotic behavior of the solutions of a linear third-order delay differential equation of the form \t\t\t(r2(t)(r1(t)y′(t))′)′+q(t)y(τ(t))=0.\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}\t\t\t\t\\usepackage{amsmath}\t\t\t\t\\usepackage{wasysym}\t\t\t\t\\usepackage{amsfonts}\t\t\t\t\\usepackage{amssymb}\t\t\t\t\\usepackage{amsbsy}\t\t\t\t\\usepackage{mathrsfs}\t\t\t\t\\usepackage{upgreek}\t\t\t\t\\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt}\t\t\t\t\\begin{document}$$ \\bigl( r_{2}(t) \\bigl( r_{1}(t)y'(t) \\bigr) ' \\bigr) '+q(t)y \\bigl(\\tau(t) \\bigr)= 0. $$\\end{document} We establish new oscillation criteria that can be used to test for oscillations, even when the previously known criteria fail to apply. Examples illustrating the results are also given.

Highlights

  • The equation itself is termed oscillatory if all of its solutions oscillate

  • We restrict our attention to those solutions of ( . ) which exist on I and satisfy the condition sup{|x(t)| : t ≥ t } > for any t ≥ ty

  • The iterative nature of the results enables us to test for oscillations, even when the previously known results fail to apply

Summary

Introduction

The equation itself is termed oscillatory if all of its solutions oscillate. ), see [ , Lemma ], authors have used various techniques to present sufficient conditions guaranteeing that any solution of As an example of this property, we can consider the third-order differential equation y (t) + y(t – τ ) = , τ > , which is oscillatory if and only if τ e > (see [ , Theorem ]).
