We establish new Kamenev-type oscillation criteria for the half-linear partial differential equation with damping div（A（x）｜｜ u｜｜^p-2 u）＋〈b（x）,｜｜ u｜｜^p-2 u〉＋c（x）｜u｜^p-2u=0（E）under quite general conditions. These results are extensions of the recent results developed by Sun [Y.C. Sun, New Kamenev-type oscillation criteria of second order nonlinear differential equations with damping, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 291 （2004） 341-351] for second order ordinary differential equations in a natural way, and improve some existing results in the literature. As applications, we illustrate our main results using two different types of half-linear partial differential equations.
We obtain some new Kamenev-type oscillation theorems for the second order semilinear elliptic differential equation with damping N ∑i,j=1Di[aij（x）Djy]＋N∑i=1bi（x）Diy＋c（x）f（y）=0 under quite general assumptions. These results are extensions of the recent results of Sun [Sun, Y. G.： New Kamenev-type oscillation criteria of second order nonlinear differential equations with damping. J. Math. Anal. Appl., 291, 341-351 （2004）] in a natural way. In particular, we do not impose any additional conditions on the damped functions bi （x） except the continuity. Several examples are given to illustrate the main results.
By using the Riccati transformation and mathematical analytic methods, some sufficient conditions are obtained for oscillation of the second-order quasilineoa＂ neutral delay difference equations
