Abstract

In the present paper the oscillatory properties of the solutions of the equation[(Lx)(t)](n)+ItK(t,s,x(s))ds=0are investigated where n1, L is an operator of the difference type, It, K:DK, DK3, x:[αx,]. Under natural conditions imposed on L, It and K it is proved that for n even all ultimately nonzero solutions oscillate and for n odd they either oscillate or tend to zero as t.
