We present new oscillation criteria for the differential equation of the form , where , . Our research is different from most known ones in the sense that H function is not employed in our results, though Riccati's substitution and its generalized forms are used. Our criteria which are established under quite general assumptions are an extension for previous results. In particular, by taking , the above-mentioned equation can be reduced into the various types of equations concerned by people currently.

AbstractConsider the second order nonlinear differential equationy" + a(t)f(y) = 0where a(t) ∈ C[0,∞),f(y) GC1 (-∞, ∞),ƒ'(y) ≥ 0 and yf(y) > 0 for y ≠ 0. Furthermore, f(y) also satisfies either a superlinear or a sublinear condition, which covers the prototype nonlinear function f(y) = |γ|γ sgny with γ > 1 and 0 < γ < 1 known as the Emden-Fowler case. The coefficient a(t) is allowed to be negative for arbitrarily large values of t. Oscillation criteria involving integral averages of a(t) due to Wintner, Hartman, and recently Butler, Erbe and Mingarelli for the linear equation are shown to remain valid for the general equation, subject to certain nonlinear conditions on f(y). In particular, these results are therefore valid for the Emden-Fowler equation.

Abstract We establish some new oscillation criteria for higher order nonlinear differential equations. The main idea involves comparing our equation with the related linear second order differential equations so that the known oscillation theorems from the literature can be employed directly.

By using generalized Riccati transformations and an inequality due to Hardy et al., several new interval oscillation criteria are established for the nonlinear damped differential equation... The new interval oscillation criteria are different from most known ones in the sense they are based on the information only on a sequence of subintervals of [t0, ∞), rather than on the whole half-line. Our results improve and extend the known some results in the literature.
