SynopsisThis paper is concerned with the effect of the delays on the bounded solutions of the nth order n ≧ 1) differential equationSufficient conditions involving the retardations τJ(j = 1,2, …, m) which insure that every bounded solution of the considered equation is oscillatory are given. The results obtained generalise recent ones in [3 and 4].

The purpose of this paper is to obtain a set of sufficient conditions for “global asymptotic stability” of the trivial solution x = 0 of the differential equation1.1using a Lyapunov function which is substantially different from similar functions used in [2], [3] and [4], for similar differential equations. The functions f1, f2 and f3 are real - valued and are smooth enough to ensure the existence of the solutions of (1.1) on [0, ∞). The dot indicates differentiation with respect to t. We are taking a and b to be some positive parameters.

In this article, we examine nonautonomous bifurcation patterns in nonlinear systems of impulsive differential equations. The approach is based on Lyapunov–Schmidt reduction applied to the linearization of a particular nonlinear integral operator whose zeroes coincide with bounded solutions of the impulsive differential equation in question. This leads to sufficient conditions for the presence of fold, transcritical and pitchfork bifurcations. Additionally, we provide a computable necessary condition for bifurcation in nonlinear scalar impulsive differential equations. Several examples are provided illustrating the results.

Then-th order nonlinear functional differential equation[r(t)x(n−υ)(t)](υ)=f(t,x(g(t)))is considered; necessary and sufficient conditions are given for this equation to have: (i) a positive bounded solutionx(t)→B>0ast→∞; and (ii) all positive bounded solutions converging to0ast→∞. Other results on the asymptotic behavior of solutions are also given. The conditions imposed are such that the equation with a discontinuity[r(t)x(n−υ)(t)](υ)=q(t)x−λ,   λ>0is included as a special case.

AbstractIn the last few years, the oscillatory behavior of functional differential equations has been investigated by many authors. But much less is known about the first-order functional differential equations. Recently, Tomaras (1975b) considered the functional differential equation and gave very interesting results on this problem, namely the sufficient conditions for its solutions to oscillate. The purpose of this paper is to extend and improve them, by examining the more general functional differential equation

We obtain new sufficient conditions for the oscillation of all solutions of the neutral differential equation with variable coefficientswhere P, Q, R ∈ C([t0, ∞), R+), r ∈ (0, ∞) and τ, σ ∈ [0, ∞). Our results improve several known results in papers by: Chuanxi and Ladas; Lalli and Zhang; Wei; Ruan.

The authors give sufficient conditions for all oscillatory solutions of a sublinear forced higher order nonlinear functional differential equation to converge to zero. They then prove a nonoscillation theorem for such equations. A few intermediate results are also obtained.

In our previous consideration in (1) of the constant-coefficient fifth-order differential equation:an attempt was made to identify (though not exhaustively) different sufficient conditions on a1,…,a5 for the instability of the trivial solution x = 0 of (1·1). It was our expectation that the conditions so identified could be generalized in some form or other to equations (1·1) in which a1,…,a5 were not necessarily constants, thereby giving rise to instability theorems for some non-linear fifth-order differential equations; and this turned out in fact to be so except only for the case:with R0 = R0(a1, a2, a3, a4) > 0 sufficiently large, about which we were unable at the time to derive any worthwhile generalization to any equation (1·1) in which a1, …,a5 are not all constants.

AbstractConsider the nth-order neutral differential equation where n ≥ 1, δ = ±1, I, K are initial segments of natural numbers, pi, τi, σk ∈ R and qk ≥ 0 for i ∈ I and k ∈ K. Then a necessary and sufficient condition for the oscillation of all solutions of (E) is that its characteristic equation has no real roots. The method of proof has the advantage that it results in easily verifiable sufficient conditions (in terms of the coefficients and the arguments only) for the oscillation of all solutionso of Equation (E).
