ON THE OSCILLATION OF CERTAIN FUNCTIONAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

In this paper, we establish some new oscillation criteria for the functional differential equations of the form $\frac{d}{dt}$$\frac{1}{a_{n-1}(t)}$$\frac{d}{dt}(\frac{1}{{a_{n-2}(t)}\frac{d}{dt}(...(\frac{1}{a_1(t)}\frac{d}{dt}x(t))...)))^\alpha$ + $\delta[f_1(t,s[g_1(t)],\frac{d}{dt}x[h_1(t)])$ + $f_2(t,x[g_2(t)],\frac{d}{dt}x[h_2(t)])]=0$ via comparing it with some other functional differential equations whose oscillatory behavior is known.
