Oscillation criteria for non-canonical second-order nonlinear delay difference equations with a superlinear neutral term

[摘要] We obtain oscillation conditions for non-canonical second-order nonlinear delay difference equations with a superlinear neutral term. To cope with non-canonical types of equations, we propose new oscillation criteria for the main equation when the neutral coefficient does not satisfy any of the conditions that call it to either converge to \(0\) or \(\infty\). Our approach differs from others in that we first turn into the non-canonical equation to a canonical form and as a result, we only require one condition to weed out non-oscillatory solutions in order to induce oscillation. The conclusions made here are new and have been condensed significantly from those found in the literature. For the sake of confirmation, we provide examples that cannot be included in earlier works.
