Oscillation of Third-order Nonlinear Delay Differential Equations

Some new oscillation criteria are presented by transforming this equation to the first-order delayed and advanced differential equations. Employing suitable comparison theorems we establish new results on oscillation of the studied equation. Assumptions in our theorems are less restrictive, these criteria improve those in the recent paper [Appl. Math. Comput., 202 (2008), 102-112] and related c...

Oscillation of third-order nonlinear damped delay differential equations

This paper is concerned with the oscillation of certain third-order nonlinear delay differential equations with damping. We give new characterizations of oscillation of the third-order equation in terms of oscillation of a related, well-studied, second-order linear differential equation without damping. We also establish new oscillation results for the third-order equation by using the integral...

Oscillation of third-order nonlinear neutral differential equations

With the development of modern society, research on properties of ordinary differential equation is becoming one of the hotspots in mathematical field. Neutral differential equation which is usually generated in natural science and engineering field is always extensively concerned by many scientific researchers for it can effectively describe multiple complex phenomena in natural world. In rece...

An Oscillation Criterion for Nonlinear Third-order Differential Equations

Sufficient conditions for oscillation of a certain class of nonlinear third-order differential equations are found. In this paper we considear a nonlinear third-order differential equation of the form y′′′ + q(t)y′ = f(t, y, y′, y′′) (1) where (i) q, q′ ∈ C ( (a,∞) ) for some a with 0 < a < ∞, (ii) f ∈ C ( (a,∞)×R3 ) , t ∈ (a,∞), and y1, y2, y3 ∈ R and f(t, y1, y2, y3)y1 < 0 for all t ∈ (a,∞) a...
