Oscillation of neutral differential equation with positive and negative coefficients. (English) Zbl 1118.34053
Summary: We provide oscillation properties of every solution of the neutral differential equation with positive and negative coefficients $[x(t)-R(t) x(t-r)]'+P(t)x(t-\tau)-Q(t)x(t-\sigma)=0,$ where $$R(t)$$, $$P(t)$$, $$Q(t) \in C([t_0,\infty)$$, $$\mathbb{R}^+)$$, $$r>0$$, $$\tau\geq 0,\sigma\geq 0$$.
