- Subject:
- difference equation, retarded argument, advanced argument, oscillatory solution, and nonoscillatory solution
- Language:
- English
- Description:
- Consider the difference equation ∆x(n) +∑m i=1 pi(n)x(τi(n)) = 0, n ≥ 0 [ ∇x(n) − ∑m i=1 pi(n)x(σi(n)) = 0, n ≥ 1 ] , where (pi(n)), 1 6 i 6 m are sequences of nonnegative real numbers, τi(n) [σi(n)], 1 6 i 6 m are general retarded (advanced) arguments and ∆ [∇] denotes the forward (backward) difference operator ∆x(n) = x(n + 1) − x(n) [∇x(n) = x(n) − x(n − 1)]. New oscillation criteria are established when the well-known oscillation conditions lim sup n→∞ ∑m i=1 ∑n j=τ(n) pi(j) > 1 [ lim sup n→∞ ∑m i=1 σ∑ (n) j=n pi(j) > 1 ] and lim inf n→∞ ∑m i=1 n∑−1 j=τi(n) pi(j) > 1⁄e [ lim inf n→∞ ∑m i=1 σ∑i(n) j=n+1 pi(j) > 1⁄e ] are not satisfied. Here τ (n) = max 1≤i≤m τi(n) [σ(n) = min 1≤i≤m σi(n)]. The results obtained essentially improve known results in the literature. Examples illustrating the results are also given.

3. Oscillation of fourth-order quasilinear differential equations
- Creator:
- Li, Tongxing, Rogovchenko, Yuriy V., and Zhang, Chenghui
- Format:
- bez média and svazek
- Type:
- model:article and TEXT
- Subject:
- oscillation, quasilinear functional differential equation, delayed argument, and advanced argument
- Language:
- English
- Description:
- We study oscillatory behavior of a class of fourth-order quasilinear differential equations without imposing restrictive conditions on the deviated argument. This allows applications to functional differential equations with delayed and advanced arguments, and not only these. New theorems are based on a thorough analysis of possible behavior of nonoscillatory solutions; they complement and improve a number of results reported in the literature. Three illustrative examples are presented.

- Format:
- bez média and svazek
- Type:
- model:article and TEXT
- Subject:
- infinite sum condition, retarded argument, advanced argument, oscillatory solution, and nonoscillatory solution
- Language:
- English
- Description:
- This paper is concerned with the oscillatory behavior of first-order nonlinear difference equations with variable deviating arguments. The corresponding difference equations of both retarded and advanced type are studied. Examples illustrating the results are also given.
