Description The research and results described in this paper belong to the qualitative theory of differential equations (more precisely, the partial differential equations with the one-dimensional p-Laplacian). Using a method whose core is formed by the Prüfer technique, we identify a borderline case between oscillatory and non-oscillatory equations. Moreover, we are able to decide whether the studied equations are oscillatory or not even in the so-called critical (i.e., the borderline) case. The advantage of our approach is the fact that we obtain new and strong results for linear and half-linear equations (i.e., the equations with the one-dimensional p-Laplacian) at the same time. In addition, we are able to work with equations whose coefficients are non-constant and non-periodic. The novelty of our results is documented by examples and corollaries.
