Oscillation of nonlinear third-order differential equations with several sublinear neutral terms (Q2063355)

This paper concerns the oscillatory behavior of third-order differential equations with several sublinear neutral terms. Oscillation criteria of solutions for superlinear differential equations and sublinear differential equations are presented respectively by the Riccati transform. These results extend the theory of third-order differential equations, and provide a base for further research on third-order differential equations and their applications. The authors give two examples to illustrate the effectiveness of oscillation criteria. Other problems remain open for solutions of third-order differential equations with several sublinear neutral terms.
