summary:The paper is concerned with oscillation properties of $n$-th order neutral differential equations of the form \[ [x(t)+cx(\tau (t))]^{(n)}+q(t)f\bigl (x(\sigma (t))\bigr )=0,\quad t\ge t_0>0, \] where $c$ is a real number with $|c|\ne 1$, $q\in C([t_0,\infty ),\mathbb R)$, $f\in C(\mathbb R,\mathbb R)$, $\tau ,\sigma \in C([t_0,\infty ),\mathbb R_+)$ with $\tau (t)<t$ and $\lim _{t\rightarrow \infty }\tau (t)=\lim _{t\rightarrow \infty }\sigma (t)=\infty $. Sufficient conditions are established for the existence of positive solutions and for oscillation of bounded solutions of the above equation. Combination of these conditions provides necessary and sufficient conditions for oscillation of bounded solutions of the equation. Further...
