✦ Synopsis
We continue the study of limit-pointrlimit-circle type differential equations of the nth order. In particular, we show that the differential expression y Ž4 k . q ry, k s 1, 2, . . . , is never of the limit-circle type as long as r is not an unbounded oscillatory function; this partially answers an open question and generalizes our result for n s 4. This follows as a consequence of new results on the nonlinear limit-pointrlimit-circle problem for the equation y Ž n. s r t f y, yЈ, . . . , y Žny1. .

In this paper, some existence theorems of nonoscillatory solutions for nth order nonlinear neutral functional differential equations are obtained. Our results extend some known results in recent years.
The purpose of this paper is to solve the oscillation problem for the nonlinear Euler differential equation t 2 x + g x = 0 and the extended equation x + a t g x = 0. Here g x satisfies the sign condition xg x > 0 if x = 0, but is not assumed to be monotone. We give necessary and sufficient conditio
