M. Angayarkanni, S. Kavitha

Abstract


In this paper, we consider the second order neutral difference equation of the form ∆ (an(∆zn) α ) + qnx β n−σ = en, n ≥ n0, where zn = xn + pnxn−τ and α > 0, β > 0 are the ratios of odd positive integers. Examples are provided to illustrate the results.

Keywords


: Second order difference equation, Almost oscillatory, Riccati technique, Summation by parts.
