\begin{itemize}
\item Equation \eqref{eq1} is oscillatory if each solution has
  infinitely many zeros in $[x_0,\infty)$.
\item Equation \eqref{eq1} is oscillatory if each solution has a zero $[a,\infty)$
  for each $a$.
\item Equation \eqref{eq1} is oscillatory if each solution has
  conjugate points on the interval $[a,\infty)$ for each $a$.
\item All definition are equivalent (no accumulation of zeros and
  Sturm separation theorem).
\item Equation is oscillatory if $c(x)$ is large enough. Many
  oscillation criteria are expressed in terms of the integral
  $\int^\infty c(x)\dx$ (Hille and Nehari type)
\item There are oscillation criteria which can detect oscillation even
  if $\int^\infty c(x)\dx$ is extremly small. These criteria are in
  fact series of conjugacy criteria.

\begin{Theorem}[Sun,Wong (2007)]
\label{theorem:sun_wong}
  If for any $T\geq 0$ there exists $a_1$, $b_1$, $a_2$, $b_2$ such
  that $T\leq a_1<b_1\leq a_2<b_2$ and

% $w=\frac{u'}{u}$ is a solution of the Riccati type differential equation
% \begin{equation}
% w'+c(x)+|w|^2=0.\label{eq:riceq}
% \end{equation}


% \textbf{Remark:} In fact
% \begin{equation}
% w'+c(x)+|w|^2\leq 0\label{eq:RICineq}
% \end{equation}
% is sufficient in proofs of nonexistence of positive (nonoscillatory)

\nadpis Detection of oscillation from ODE

% Oscillation of partial differential equation can be detected from
% oscillation of ordinary differential equation.
\begin{Theorem}[O. Do\v sl\'y (2001)] \label{rad}
%   Let
%   \begin{align*}
% %    \~a(r)={1\over \omega_nr^{n-1}}\int_{S(r)}a(x)\dS\\
%     \hat c(r)={1\over \omega_nr^{n-1}}\int_{S(r)}c(x)\dS.
%   \end{align*}
Equation
\begin{equation}
\div(\Vert\nabla u\Vert^{p-2}\nabla u)+c(x)|u|^{p-2}u=0\label{eq:E-non-damp}
\end{equation}
is oscillatory, if the ordinary differential equation
 \begin{equation}
   \label{hl}
   \Bigl( r^{n-1}|u'|^{p-2}u'\Bigr)'+r^{n-1}\left(\frac{1}{\omega_n r^{n-1}}\int_{S(r)}\, c(x) \,\dx\right)|u|^{p-2}u=0
 \end{equation}
is oscillatory.
The number $\omega_n$ is the surface area of the unit sphere in $\R^n$.
\end{Theorem}

J. Jaro\v s, T. Kusano and N. Yoshida proved independently similar
result (for $A(x)=a(\Vert x\Vert )I$, $a(\cdot)$ differentiable).

\nadpis {Our aim}

\begin{itemize*}
\item Extend method used in Theorem \ref{theorem:sun_wong} to
  \eqref{eq:E}. Derive a general result, like Theorem B.
\item Derive a result which does depend on more general expression,
  than the mean value of $c(x)$ over spheres centered in the origin.
%   Is it possible to detect oscillation in such an extreme case as
%   $\int_{S(||x||)}\modra{c(x)}\dS=0$?
\item Remove restrictions used by previous authors (for example Xu (2009)
  excluded the possibility $p_i>p$ for every $i$).
  % S(r)}\cervena{\lambdamax(x)}}$ plays a crucial role in the linear
  % case and $\boxed{\rho(r)\geq \max_{x\in S(r)}\cervena{\frac{\Vert
  %       {A(x)}\Vert ^p_F}{\lambdamin^{p-1}(x)}}}$ plays similar role
  % if $p>1$.  This phenomenon can be observed also in other
  % oscillation criteria than Theorems B and C. We know that
  % $\rho(r)\geq \lambda(r)$. Why such a discrepancy appears?

\begin{itemize}
\item Get rid of terms $\sum_{i=1}^m c_i(x)|y|^{p_i-2}y$ and $e(x)$
  (join with $c(x)|y|^{p-2}y$) and convert the problem into
  \begin{equation*}
        \div\left(A(x)\norm{\nabla y}^{p-2}\nabla y\right)+ \ss{\vec
      b(x)}{\norm{\nabla y}^{p-2}\nabla y}+\modra{C(x)|y|^{p-2}y}=0.
  \end{equation*}
\item Derive Riccati type inequality in $n$ variables.
\item Derive Riccati type inequality in $1$ variable.
\item Use this inequality as a tool which transforms results from ODE
  to PDE.

Using generalized AG inequality $\sum \alpha _i\geq
\prod\left(\frac{\alpha_i}{\eta_i}\right)^{\eta_i}$, if $\alpha_i\geq
0$, $\eta_i>0$ and $\sum \eta_i=1$ we eliminate the right-hand side and terms with mixed powers.



\begin{lemma}\label{lemma:est1}
  Let either $y>0$ and $e(x)\leq 0$ or $y<0$ and $e(x)\geq 0$. Let
  $\eta_i>0$ be numbers satisfying $\sum_{i=0}^m{\eta_i}=1$ and
  $\eta_0+\sum_{i=1}^m p_i\eta_i=p$ and let $c_i(x)\geq 0$ for every
  $i$. Then
  \begin{equation*}%\label{eq:est1}
    \frac{1}{|y|^{p-2}y}\left(-e(x)+\sum_{i=1}^m c_i(x)|y|^{p_i-2} y\right)\geq C_1(x),

\begin{lemma}\label{lemma:est10}
  Suppose $c_i(x)\geq 0$. Let $\eta_i>0$ be numbers satisfying

        C_2(x):=\prod_{i=1}^m\left(\frac{c_i(x)}{\eta_i}\right)^{\eta_i}

\end{lemma}

% \begin{remark}

% \begin{lemma}\label{lemma:ineq_cal}

\begin{theorem}\label{lemma:radialODE}
  Let the $n$-vector function $\vec w$ satisfy inequality
  \begin{equation*}
    \div \vec w+C_0(x)+(p-1)\Lambda_0(x)\norm{\vec w}^q\leq 0
  \end{equation*}
  on $\Omega(a,b)$.  Denote $\tilde C(r)=\int_{S(r)}C_0(x)\dS$ and
  $\tilde R(r)=\int_{S(r)}\Lambda_0^{1-p}\dS$.  Then
  the half-linear ordinary differential equation
  \begin{equation*}%\label{eq:radialODE}
    \left(\tilde R(r) |u'|^{p-2}u\right)'+\tilde C(r) |u|^{p-2}u=0, 
    \qquad {}'=\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\dr}
  \end{equation*}
  is disconjugate on $[a,b]$ and it possesses solution which has no
  zero on $[a,b]$.
\end{theorem}

\begin{theorem}\label{th1}
  Let $l>1$. Let  $l^*={1}$ if $\norm{\vec b}\equiv 0$ and
  $l^*=\frac{l}{l-1}$ otherwise. Further, let $c_i(x)\geq 0$ for every
  $i$. Denote
  \begin{equation*}%\label{eq:tildeR}
    \tilde R(r)=(l^*)^{p-1}\int_{S(r)}\Lambda^{1-p}(x)\dS 
  \end{equation*}
  and 
  \begin{equation*}
    \tilde C(r)=\int_{S(r)}c(x)+C_1(x)-\frac{l^{p-1}}{ p^p \Lambda^{p-1}(x)}\norm{A^{-1}(x)\vec b(x)}^p\dS,
  \end{equation*}
  where $\Lambda(x)$ is defined by \eqref{eq:Lambda} and $C_1(x)$ is
  defined by \eqref{eq:C1}.

  Suppose that the equation
  \begin{equation*}%\label{eq:th1}
    \left(\tilde R(r)|u'|^{p-2}u'\right)'+\tilde C(r) |u|^{p-2}u=0
  \end{equation*}
  has conjugate points on $[a,b]$.  
  
  If $e(x)\leq 0$ on $\Omega(a,b)$, then equation \eqref{eq:E} has no
  positive solution on $\Omega(a,b)$.

  If $e(x)\geq 0$ on $\Omega(a,b)$, then equation \eqref{eq:E} has no
  negative solution on $\Omega(a,b)$.
\end{theorem}

\begin{theorem}[non-radial variant of Theorem \ref{th1}]\label{th1a}
  Let $l>1$ and let $\Omega\subset\Omega(a,b)$ be an open domain with
  piecewise smooth boundary such that $\meas(\Omega \cap S(r))\neq 0$
  for every $r\in[a,b]$. Let $c_i(x)\geq 0$ on $\Omega$ for every
  $i$ and let $\alpha(x)$ be a function which is
  positive and continuously differentiable on $\Omega$ and vanishes on
  the boundary and outside $\Omega$.  Let $l^*=1$ if $\norm{A^{-1}\vec
    b-\frac{\nabla \alpha}{\alpha}}\equiv 0$ on $\Omega$ and
  $l^*=\frac{l}{l-1}$ otherwise. In the former case suppose also that
  the integral
  \begin{equation*}
    \int_{S(r)}\frac{\alpha(x)}{ \Lambda^{p-1}(x)}\norm{A^{-1}(x)\vec b(x)-\frac{\nabla\alpha(x)}{\alpha(x)}}^p\dS
  \end{equation*}
  which may have singularity on $\partial \Omega$ if
  $\Omega\neq\Omega(a,b)$ is convergent for every $r\in[a,b]$. Denote
  \begin{equation*}
    \tilde R(r)=(l^*)^{p-1}\int_{S(r)}\alpha(x)\Lambda^{1-p}(x)\dS 
  \end{equation*}
  and
  \begin{equation*}
    \tilde C(r)=\int_{S(r)}{\cervena{\alpha(x)}}\left(c(x)+C_1(x)-\frac{l^{p-1}}{ p^p \Lambda^{p-1}(x)}\norm{A^{-1}(x)\vec b(x)-\frac{\nabla\alpha(x)}{\alpha(x)}}^p\right)\dS,
  \end{equation*}
  where $\Lambda(x)$ is defined by \eqref{eq:Lambda} and $C_1(x)$ is
  defined by \eqref{eq:C1} and suppose that equation
  \begin{equation*}
    \left(\tilde R(r)|u'|^{p-2}u'\right)'+\tilde C(r) |u|^{p-2}u=0
  \end{equation*}
  has conjugate points on $[a,b]$.
  
  If $e(x)\leq 0$ on $\Omega(a,b)$, then equation \eqref{eq:E} has no
  positive solution on $\Omega(a,b)$.

  If $e(x)\geq 0$ on $\Omega(a,b)$, then equation \eqref{eq:E} has no
  negative solution on $\Omega(a,b)$.

\begin{theorem}\label{th2}
  Let $l$, $\Omega$, $\alpha(x)$, $\Lambda(x)$ and $\tilde R(r)$ be
  defined as in Theorem \ref{th1a} and let $c_i(x)\geq 0$ and
  \cervena{$e(x)\equiv 0$} on $\Omega(a,b)$. Denote
  \begin{equation*}

  where $C_2(x)$ is defined by \eqref{eq:C2}.
  If the equation %\eqref{eq:th1}
   \begin{equation*}
     \left(\tilde R(r)|u'|^{p-2}u'\right)'+\tilde C(r) |u|^{p-2}u=0
   \end{equation*}
  has conjugate points on $[a,b]$, then every solution of equation
  \eqref{eq:E} has zero on $\Omega(a,b)$.
