Comparison Theorems for Oscillation of Higher-Order Neutral Delay Differential Equations.

In this work, we study the oscillatory features of a class of neutral differential equations with multiple delays. We present novel oscillation conditions for this equation by using a comparison method. We create conditions that exclude the positive solution of the examined equation. Using the feature of symmetry between non-oscillatory solutions (positive and negative), these conditions also exclude negative solutions without adding additional restrictions. In our study, we take into account the even and odd cases of the order of the equation. Furthermore, we study the asymptotic properties in three different cases of functional coefficients. Our results are a fundamental extension and generalization of previous relevant findings, and this fact has been demonstrated through comparisons. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
