Abstract

The study of oscillation theory for fractional differential equations has been initiated by Grace et al. [5]. In this paper we establish some new criteria for the oscillation of fractional differential equations with the Caputo derivative of the form DarCx(t)=e(t)+f(t,x(t)),t>0,a>1, where r=α+n-1,α(0,1), and n1 is a natural number. We also present the conditions under which all solutions of this equation are asymptotic to tn-1 as t.
