Author(s):  
E. Müller-Pfeiffer

SynopsisThe paper presents sufficient conditions on the coefficients of second and fourth order differential equations to ensure that there exists at least one pair of conjugate points on an interval (a, b), −∞≦ a <b ≦ ∞. Oscillation criteria related to the equation (p(x)y″)″ + q(x)y = 0, 0 < x < ∞, are proved with no sign restrictions on q(x).

AbstractIn this paper, sufficient conditions are obtained for oscillation of a class of nonlinear fourth order mixed neutral differential equations of the form (E)$$\left( {\frac{1} {{a\left( t \right)}}\left( {\left( {y\left( t \right) + p\left( t \right)y\left( {t - \tau } \right)} \right)^{\prime \prime } } \right)^\alpha } \right)^{\prime \prime } = q\left( t \right)f\left( {y\left( {t - \sigma _1 } \right)} \right) + r\left( t \right)g\left( {y\left( {t + \sigma _2 } \right)} \right)$$ under the assumption $$\int\limits_0^\infty {\left( {a\left( t \right)} \right)^{\tfrac{1} {\alpha }} dt} = \infty .$$ where α is a ratio of odd positive integers. (E) is studied for various ranges of p(t).

Abstract In this article, we regard the generalized Riccati transformation and Riemann–Liouville fractional derivatives as the principal instrument. In the proof, we take advantage of the fractional derivatives technique with the addition of interval segmentation techniques, which enlarge the manners to demonstrate the sufficient conditions for oscillation criteria of certain fractional partial differential equations.

Abstract In this paper, several sufficient conditions for oscillation of all solutions of fourth order functional differential equations of neutral type of the form $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \bigl(r(t)(y(t)+p(t)y(t-\tau))''\bigr)''+q(t)G\bigl(y(t-\sigma)\bigr)=0 \end{array}$$ are studied under the assumption $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \int\limits^{\infty}_{0}\frac{t}{r(t)}{\rm d} t =\infty \end{array}$$

The aim of this work is to study oscillatory properties of a class of fourth-order delay differential equations. New oscillation criteria are obtained by using generalized Riccati transformations. This new theorem complements and improves a number of results reported in the literature. Some examples are provided to illustrate the main results.

In this paper, the authors obtain some new sufficient conditions for the oscillation of all solutions of the fourth order delay differential equations. Some new oscillatory criteria are obtained by using the generalized Riccati transformations and comparison technique with first order delay differential equation. Our results extend and improve many well-known results for oscillation of solutions to a class of fourth-order delay differential equations. The effectiveness of the obtained criteria is illustrated via examples.

This paper aims to study the oscillatory properties of fourth-order advanced differential equations with p-Laplacian like operator. By using the technique of Riccati transformation and the theory of comparison with first-order delay equations, we will establish some new oscillation criteria for this equation. Some examples are considered to illustrate the main results.

The aim of this paper is to study the oscillatory properties of 4th-order neutral differential equations. We obtain some oscillation criteria for the equation by the theory of comparison. The obtained results improve well-known oscillation results in the literate. Symmetry plays an important role in determining the right way to study these equation. An example to illustrate the results is given.
