Abstract:

Consider the second order elliptic  equations ∑^n_{i,j}∂/∂x_i{A_{i,j}(x,y)∂/∂x_j}+q(x)f(y)=0  (E),Some oscillation criteria are obtained for Eq.(E) in an exterior domain Ω R^n (n≥2), where q(x) is allowed to change sign.Generalized partial Riccati transformation and averaging technique are employed to establish our results.

Key words: Oscillation, Elliptic , equations of second order, Averaging technique, Generalized partial Riccati transformation
