Popis: We find necessary conditions for every solution of the neutral delay difference equation Δ(rnΔ(yn−pnyn−m))+qnG(yn−k)=fn to oscillate or to tend to zero as n→∞, where Δ is the forward difference operator Δxn=xn+1−xn, and pn, qn, rn are sequences of real numbers with qn≥0, rn>0. Different ranges of {pn}, including pn=±1, are considered in this paper. We do not assume that G is Lipschitzian nor nondecreasing with xG(x)>0 for x≠0. In this way, the results of this paper improve, generalize, and extend recent results. Also, we provide illustrative examples for our results.
