New oscillation results of second-order damped dynamic equations with \(p\)-Laplacian on time scales (Q1723471)

Summary: By employing a generalized Riccati technique and functions in some function classes for integral averaging, we derive new oscillation criteria of second-order damped dynamic equation with \(p\)-Laplacian on time scales of the form \((r \left(t\right) \varphi_\gamma(x^\Delta(t)))^\Delta + p \left(t\right) \varphi_\gamma(x^\Delta(t)) + f(t, x(g(t))) = 0\), where the coefficient function \(p(t)\) may change sign. Two examples are given to demonstrate the obtained results.
