Abstract

In this paper, we study asymptotic behaviour of solutions of the following higher order nonlinear dynamic equations

$$y^{\triangle^n}(t)+\delta p(t)f(y(g(t)))=0$$

and

$$y^{\triangle^n}(t)+\delta p(t)f(y(h(t)))=0$$

on an arbitrary time scale \(\mathbb{T}\) with \(\sup {\mathbb{T}}=\infty\), where n is a positive integer and δ=1 or −1. We obtain some sufficient conditions for the equivalence of the oscillation of the above equations.
