Abstract

In the present paper, new oscillation criteria are established for fourth-order delay differential equations of the form

(a3(t)(a2(t)a1(t)x(t)))+b(t)xα(σ(t))=0

under the assumption (noncanonical)

t01aj(t)dt<,j=1,2,3.

We convert the equation into a canonical type, utilize the comparison method, and the Riccati transformation to find sufficient conditions for oscillation of all solutions to the aforementioned problem. This approach greatly simplifies the examination analysis, and provides a substantial improvement of the current results and this is documented by several evidences and illustrated by numerical examples.
