Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to derive sufficient conditions for the oscillation of all solutions of a difference equation with several non-monotone deviating arguments and nonnegative coefficients. Corresponding difference equations of both retarded and advanced type are studied. Examples illustrating the significance of the results are also given.
