Review text

It is shown that if \(p_ j \in (0, + \infty)\), \(\tau_ j \in [0, + \infty)\), \(uf_ j (u) > 0\) \((u \neq 0)\) for \(j = 1,2, \dots, n\) and \(u \in (- \alpha, \alpha)\), \(\lim_{u \to 0} f_ j(u)/u = 1\), then the equations \(x'(t) + \sum^ n_{j=1} p_ j f_ j(x(t - \tau_ j)) = 0\), \(t \geq t_ 0\), and \(x'(t) + \sum^ n_{j = 1} p_ j x(t - \tau_ j) = 0\), \(t \geq t_ 0\), are equivalent for their oscillations. It is an extension of Kulenovic, Ladas and Meimaridou results.
