On the behavior of the oscillatory solutions of first or second order delay differential equations

Some new results are given concerning the behavior of the oscillatory solutions of first or second order delay differential equations. These results establish that all oscillatory solutions x of a first or second order delay differential equation satisfy x(t)=O(v(t)) as t→∞, where v is a nonoscillatory solution of a corresponding first or second order linear delay differential equation. Some applications of the results obtained are also presented.     

On oscillatory and asymptotic behavior of fourth order nonlinear neutral delay dynamic equations with positive and negative coefficients

In this paper, oscillatory and asymptotic properties of solutions of nonlinear fourth order neutral dynamic equations of the form $(r(t)(y(t) + p(t)y(\alpha _1 (t)))^{\Delta ^2 } )^{\Delta ^2 } + q(t)G(y(\alpha _2 (t))) - h(t)H(y(\alpha _3 (t))) = 0(H)$ and $(r(t)(y(t) + p(t)y(\alpha _1 (t)))^{\Delta ^2 } )^{\Delta ^2 } + q(t)G(y(\alpha _2 (t))) - h(t)H(y(\alpha _3 (t))) = f(t),(NH)$ are studied on a time scale $\mathbb{T}$ under the assumption that $\int\limits_{t_0 }^\infty {\tfrac{t} {{r(t)}}\Delta t = \infty } $ and for various ranges of p(t). In addition, sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of bounded positive solutions of the equation (NH) by using Krasnosel’skii’s fixed point theorem.

Oscillation of even order nonlinear delay dynamic equations on time scales

One of the important methods for studying the oscillation of higher order differential equations is to make a comparison with second order differential equations. The method involves using Taylor’s Formula. In this paper we show how such a method can be used for a class of even order delay dynamic equations on time scales via comparison with second order dynamic inequalities. In particular, it is shown that nonexistence of an eventually positive solution of a certain second order delay dynamic inequality is sufficient for oscillation of even order dynamic equations on time scales. The arguments are based on Taylor monomials on time scales.

Comparison and oscillatory behavior for certain second order nonlinear dynamic equations

We present some new necessary and sufficient conditions for the oscillation of second order nonlinear dynamic equation $$\bigl(a\bigl(x^{\Delta }\bigr)^{\alpha }\bigr)^{\Delta }(t)+q(t)x^{\beta }(t)=0$$ on an arbitrary time scale $\mathbb{T}$ , where α and β are ratios of positive odd integers, a and q are positive rd-continuous functions on $\mathbb{T}$ . Comparison results with the inequality $$\bigl(a\bigl(x^{\Delta }\bigr)^{\alpha }\bigr)^{\Delta }(t)+q(t)x^{\beta }(t)\leqslant 0\quad (\geqslant 0)$$ are established and application to neutral equations of the form $$\bigl(a(t)\bigl(\bigl[x(t)+p(t)x[\tau (t)]\bigr]^{\Delta }\bigr)^{\alpha }\bigr)^{\Delta }+q(t)x^{\beta }\bigl[g(t)\bigr]=0$$ are investigated.
