Oscillation and nonoscillation of neutral difference equations with positive and negative coefficients. (English) Zbl 0958.39016

The authors establish several new sufficient conditions for the oscillation of all solutions of \[ \Delta(x_n-c_n x_{n-\tau}) +p_nx_{n-k}-q_nx_{n-\ell} =0 \] with \(p_n-q_{n-k+\ell}\geq 0\) and not identically zero. Also existence theorems for the positive solutions are obtained.
