Oscillation Criteria for Second-Order Delay Dynamic Equations on Time Scales

Abstract

By means of Riccati transformation technique, we establish some new oscillation criteria for the second-order nonlinear delay dynamic equations on a time scale , here is a quotient of odd positive integers with p and q real-valued positive rd-continuous functions defined on .
