We are motivated by the idea that certain properties of delay differential and difference equations with constant coefficients arise as a consequence of their one-periodic nature. We apply the recently introduced definition of periodicity for arbitrary isolated time scales to linear delay dynamic equations and a class of nonlinear delay dynamic equations. Utilizing a derived identity of higher order delta derivatives and delay terms, we rewrite the considered linear and nonlinear delayed dynamic equations with one-periodic coefficients as a linear autonomous dynamic system with constant matrix. As the simplification of a constant matrix is only obtained for one-periodic coefficients, dynamic …

The aim of this paper is to extend and complete the recent work by Graef et al. (J. Appl. Anal. Comput., 2021) analyzing the asymptotic properties of solutions to third-order linear delay differential equations. Most importantly, the authors tackle a particularly challenging problem of obtaining lower estimates for Kneser-type solutions. This allows improvement of existing conditions for the nonexistence of such solutions. As a result, a new criterion for oscillation of all solutions of the equation studied is established.
