The authors consider the difference equation \[ \Delta^2 x_n + f(n,x_{n+\tau})=0 \] with fixed \(\tau\), a positive integer, \(x\in X\) with \(X\) a real Hilbert space. Let \(\langle\;,\;\rangle\) be the scalar product on \(X\) and \(S_X=\{x\in X:\| x\| =1\}\) the unit sphere in \(X\); let \(u\in X\): a point \(x\in X\) is positive w.r.t. \(u\) if \(\langle x,u\rangle >0\). In the same way there are defined increasing sequences w.r.t. \(u\) and oscillation. The standard oscillation condition of the real case: \(f(n,x)/x\geq 2\) is replaced by \[ \langle f(n,x),u\rangle/\langle x,u\rangle\geq 0,\quad x\in X\setminus\{u\}^{\perp} \] where \(\{u\}^{\perp}\) is the orthogonal complement of \(u\) in \(X\). Some sufficient non-oscillation and oscillation criteria are obtained within this framework.
