On oscillatory fourth order nonlinear neutral differential equations. II. (English) Zbl 1114.34048

[For part I see ibid. 54, No. 4, 389–410 (2004; Zbl 1099.34061).]
The authors study the oscillatory behaviour of solutions to the fourth order neutral differential equation
\[ \bigl [r(t)\big (y(t)+p(t)\,y(t-\tau )\big )''\bigr ]''+q(t)\,G\big (y(t-\sigma ) \big )=0 \]
and the associated forced equation
\[ \bigl [r(t)\big (y(t)+p(t)\,y(t-\tau )\big )''\bigr ]''+q(t)\,G\big (y(t-\sigma ) \big )=f(t) \]
under the assumption \(\int _0^\infty \bigl (t/r(t)\bigr )\,dt=\infty \) for various ranges of \(p(t)\). Sufficient conditions for the existence of bounded positive solutions to the forced equation are obtained too.
