Asymptotic and Oscillatory Properties of Third-Order Differential Equations with Multiple Delays in the Noncanonical Case

This paper investigates the asymptotic and oscillatory properties of a distinctive class of third-order linear differential equations characterized by multiple delays in a noncanonical case.Employing the comparative method and the Riccati method, we introduce Candle Holders the novel and rigorous criteria to discern whether the solutions of the exa
