Discrete oscillations. (English) Zbl 0881.39007

The paper deals with oscillation and nonoscillation criteria for the following linear difference equation \[ x_{n+1} -b(n)x_n +\sum^n_{i=1} P_i(n) x_{n-k_i}=0, \quad n=0,1,2, \dots \] with several delays. The main results provide sufficient conditions for the above equation to have nonoscillatory or oscillatory solutions. A comparison theorem and some applications are also given.
