Oscillation of impulsive functional differential equations with oscillatory potentials and Riemann-Stieltjes integrals

This paper addresses the oscillation problem of a class of impulsive differential equations with delays and Riemann-Stieltjes integrals that cover many equations in the literature. In the case of oscillatory potentials, both El-Sayed type and Kamenev type oscillation criteria are established by overcoming the difficulty caused by impulses and oscillatory potentials in the estimation of the delayed argument. The main results not only generalize some existing results but also drop a restrictive condition imposed on impulse constants. Finally, two examples are presented to illustrate the theoretical results. MSC: 34K11
