Oscillation criteria for certain forced second-order nonlinear differential equations. (English) Zbl 1061.34017
Summary: Two new oscillation criteria for forced second-order nonlinear differential equations of the form
\[
\left(r(t)\Psi\bigl(y(t)\bigr) \bigl|y' (t)\bigr|^{\alpha-1}y'(t)\right)'+q(t)f\bigl(y(t)\bigr)=e(t),\quad t \geq t_0,
\]
are established. Our results are based on the information on a sequence of subintervals of \([t_0,\infty)\) only, rather than on the whole half-line. Our methodology is somewhat different from that of previous authors. The results presented here are much more general than a recent result of W. T. Li and S. S. Cheng [Appl. Math. Lett. 15, 259–263 (2002; Zbl 1023.34029)].
