Title: Oscillation of solutions for forced nonlinear neutral hyperbolic equations with functional arguments Author: Yutaka Shoukaku (Kanazawa Univ., Kanazawa Japan) Abstract: This article studies the forced oscillatory behavior of solutions to nonlinear hyperbolic equations with functional arguments. Our main tools are the integral averaging method and a generalized Riccati technique. Submitted April 13, 2011. Published May 09, 2011. Math Subject Classifications: 34K11, 35B05, 35R10.
