On the Oscillatory Behavior for a Certain Class of Third Order Nonlinear Delay Difference Equations

Nonlinear oscillation of certain third-order neutral differential equation with distributed delay

The authors obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of oscillatory solutions with a specified asymptotic behavior of solutions to a nonlinear neutral differential equation with distributed delay of third order. We give new theorems which ensure that every solution to be either oscillatory or converges to zero asymptotically. Examples dwelling upon the importance of applicab...

ON THE PERIODIC SOLUTIONS OF A CLASS OF nTH ORDER NONLINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS *

The nth order differential equation x + c (t )x + ƒ( t,x) = e(t),n>3 is considered. Using the Leray-Schauder principle, it is shown that under certain conditions on the functions involved, this equation possesses a periodic solution.

Oscillation of Third-order Functional Differential Equations

The aim of this paper is to study oscillatory and asymptotic properties of the third-order nonlinear delay differential equation (E) ˆ a(t) ˆ x ′′(t) ̃ γ ̃ ′ + q(t)f(x [τ (t)]) = 0. Applying suitable comparison theorems we present new criteria for oscillation or certain asymptotic behavior of nonoscillatory solutions of (E). Obtained results essentially improve and complement earlier ones. Variou...

PERIODIC SOLUTIONS OF CERTAIN THREE DIMENSIONAL AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS

There has been extensive work on the existence of periodic solutions for nonlinear second order autonomous differantial equations, but little work regarding the third order problems. The popular Poincare-Bendixon theorem applies well to the former but not the latter (see [2] and [3]). We give a necessary condition for the existence of periodic solutions for the third order autonomous system...
