Oscillatory behaviour of a class of second order Emden-Fowler differential equations with a sublinear neutral term

Abstract

This article is dedicated to the oscillatory properties of a second order Emden-Fowler delay differential equation with a sublinear neutral term. The presented criteria extend and improve several well-known results reported recently in the literature. Four illustrating examples are included to verify the validity of the results derived.
