Abstract

Sufficient conditions are obtained for oscillation of all solutions of a class of forced nth order linear and nonlinear neutral delay differential equations. Also, asymptotic behaviour of nonoscillatory solutions of a class of forced first order neutral equations is studied.

Keywords

neutral equation, oscillation, asymptotic behaviour, forced equation
