Abstract

In this paper, we consider the oscillation of the second-order neutral difference equation

$$\Delta ^2 \left( {x_n - px_{n - \tau } } \right) + q_n f\left( {x_{n - \sigma _n } } \right) = 0$$

as well as the oscillatory behavior of the corresponding ordinary difference equation

$$\Delta ^2 z_n + q_n f\left( {R\left( {n,\lambda } \right)z_n } \right) = 0$$
