Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 21Principal and Nonprincipal Solutions of Impulsive Differential Equations With Applications(Elsevier Science inc, 2010) Ozbekler, A.; Zafer, A.We introduce the concept of principal and nonprincipal solutions for second order differential equations having fixed moments of impulse actions is obtained. The arguments are based on Polya and Trench factorizations as in non-impulsive differential equations, so we first establish these factorizations. Making use of the existence of nonprincipal solutions we also establish new oscillation criteria for nonhomogeneous impulsive differential equations. Examples are provided with numerical simulations to illustrate the relevance of the results. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc.

Under the assumption that the solution of Eq. (2) has two consecutive zeros, we obtain Sturm-Picone type and Leighton type comparison theorems for Eq. (1) by employing the new nonlinear version of Picone's formula that we derive. Wirtinger type inequalities and several oscillation criteria are also attained for Eq. (1). Examples are given to illustrate the relevance of the results. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
