Oscillation and nonoscillation of second-order half-linear differential equations. (English) Zbl 1310.34044
J. Math. Sci., New York 191, No. 3, 377-387 (2013) and in Neliniĭni Kolyvannya 15, No. 3, 344-353 (2012).
The paper considers the problem of oscillation and non-oscillation of the second order half-linear differential equation $({|{u'(t)}|}^{\alpha-1}u'(t))'+p(t){|{u'(t)}|}^{\alpha-1}u(t)=0,$ where $$\alpha>0$$ is a constant and $$p\in C([0,+\infty),[0,+\infty))$$ is an integrable function.
New oscillation and non-oscillation criteria that extend and improve some known results for second-order linear differential equations are given.
