摘要

In this paper, we will study oscillations of numerical solutions for the neutral delay differential equation d/dt [y(t) + py(t - tau)] + qy(t - sigma) = 0, where p is an element of R and p not equal 0, tau , q is an element of (0,+infinity), sigma >= 0. Conditions under which numerical solutions of the above differential equation are oscillatory are obtained. The condition that leads to oscillations of the linear theta-method is also given. To verify our results, we give numerical experiments.
