Oscillation and nonoscillation of difference equations with several delays (Q2218613)

The authors investigate the oscillatory and nonoscillatory solutions of the following delay difference equation: \[ \Delta x\left( n\right) +\sum_{k=1}^{m}p_{k}\left( n\right) x\left( n-\tau_{k}\right) =0, \qquad n=0,1, \dots \] where \(\Delta\) is the forward difference operator, i.e., \(\Delta x\left( n\right) :=x\left( n+1\right) -x\left( n\right) \), for \(k=1,2,\dots,m\), \(\tau_{k}\) is a nonnegative integer and \(\left\{ p_{k}\left( n\right) \right\}_{n=0}^{\infty}\) is a nonnegative sequence of reals. Based on both lower and upper limit conditions, they obtain some criteria for the behavior of solutions.
