Abstract

By refining the generalized Riccati transformation technique, we obtain new oscillation criteria for a class of second-order half-linear delay dynamic equations with damping on a time scale. Assumptions in our theorems are less restrictive, these results complement and improve related contributions to the subject. In particular, the results obtained amend related results reported in the literature.
