ABSTRACT It is the purpose of this paper to give oscillation criteria for the third order nonlinear delay dynamic equation on a time scale T, where γ≥1 is the quotient of odd positive integers, a and are positive rd-continuous functions on T, and the so-called delay function τ:T→T satisfies τ(t)≤t for t∈T and limt→∞τ(t)=∞ and f∈C(T×R,R). Our results are new for third order delay dynamic equations and extend many known results for oscillation of third order dynamic equation. These results in the special cases when T=R and T=N involve and improve some oscillation results for third order delay differential and difference equations; when T=hN, T=qN0 and T=N2 our oscillation results are essentially new. Some examples are given to illustrate the main results.

Article: Oscillation criteria for half-linear dynamic equations on time scales
[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This paper is concerned with oscillation of the second-order half-linear dynamic equation(r(t)(xΔγ)Δ)+p(t)xγ(t)=0, on a time scale T where γ is the quotient of odd positive integers, r(t) and p(t) are positive rd-continuous functions on T. Our results solve a problem posed by [R.P. Agarwal, D. O'Regan, S.H. Saker, Philos-type oscillation criteria for second-order half linear dynamic equations, Rocky Mountain J. Math. 37 (2007) 1085–1104; S.H. Saker, Oscillation criteria of second order half-linear dynamic equations on time scales, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 177 (2005) 375–387] and our results in the special cases when T=R and T=Z involve and improve some oscillation results for second-order differential and difference equations; and when T=hZ, T=qN0 and , etc., our oscillation results are essentially new. Some examples illustrating the importance of our results are also included.

Article: Hille and Nehari type criteria for third-order dynamic equations
[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this paper, we extend the oscillation criteria that have been established by Hille [E. Hille, Non-oscillation theorems, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 64 (1948) 234–252] and Nehari [Z. Nehari, Oscillation criteria for second-order linear differential equations, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 85 (1957) 428–445] for second-order differential equations to third-order dynamic equations on an arbitrary time scale T, which is unbounded above. Our results are essentially new even for third-order differential and difference equations, i.e., when T=R and T=N. We consider several examples to illustrate our results.

ABSTRACT: In this paper, we are concerned with the oscillation properties of the third order differential equation $\left( {b(t) \left( {[a(t)x'(t)'} \right)^\gamma } \right)^\prime + q(t)x^\gamma (t) = 0, \gamma > 0$ \left( {b(t) \left( {[a(t)x'(t)'} \right)^\gamma } \right)^\prime + q(t)x^\gamma (t) = 0, \gamma > 0 . Some new sufficient conditions which insure that every solution oscillates or converges to zero are established. The obtained results extend the results known in the literature for γ = 1. Some examples are considered to illustrate our main results.
