Oscillatory and Asymptotic Behavior of Third-order Nonlinear Functional Differential Equations

摘要

This paper is concerned with oscillatory and asymptotic behavior of solutions of a class of third-order nonlinear functional differential equations. By using the generalized Riccati transformation and the integral averaging technique, two new sufficient conditions which insure that the solution is oscillatory or converges to zero are established. The results obtained essentially generalize and improve earlier ones.
