Abstract

In this paper, oscillation and nonoscillation criteria are established for nonlinear neutral delay differential equations with several positive and negative coefficients $$[x(t)-R(t)x(t-r)]^{\prime}+\sum_{i=1}^{m}Pi(t)H_i(x(t-{\tau}_i))-\sum_{j=1}^{n}Q_j(t)H_j(x(t-{\sigma}_j))=0$$. Our criteria improve and extend many results known in the literature. In addition we prove that under appropriate hypotheses, if every solution of the associated linear equation with constant coefficients, $$y^{\prime}(t)+\sum_{i=1}^{m}(p_i-\sum_{k{\in}J_i}qk)y(t-{\tau}_i)=0$$, oscillates, then every solution of the nonlinear equation also oscillates.
