Abstract

Some new oscillation criteria for nonlinear delay difference equation with damping

$$ \begin{array}{*{20}c} {{\Delta ^{2} x_{n} + p_{n} \Delta x_{n} + F{\left( {n,x_{{n - r}} ,\Delta x_{{n - \sigma }} } \right)} = 0,}} & {{n = 0,1,2,...,}} \\ \end{array} $$
((∗))

are given. Our results partially solve the open problem posed in [Math. Bohemica, 125 (2000), 421– 430]. Also, we will establish some new oscillation criteria for special cases of (∗), which improve some of the well–known results in the literature.
