We focus on criteria that exclude decreasing positive solutions. As in this paper, this type of solution emerges when considering the noncanonical case of even equations. By finding a better estimate of the ratio between the Kneser solution with and without delay, we obtain new constraints that ensure that all solutions to the considered equation oscillate. The new findings improve some previous findings in the literature. KW - delay differential equations KW - even-order KW - Kneser solutions KW - oscillation SN - 1232-9274 ER -
