Oscillatory behavior of second-order neutral difference equations with positive and negative coefficients

Ethiraju Thandapani, Krishnan Thangavelu, Ekambaram Chandrasekaran

Abstract:
Oscillation criteria are established for solutions of forced and unforced second-order neutral difference equations with positive and negative coefficients. These results generalize some existing results in the literature. Examples are provided to illustrate our results.
