Abstract
Using inequalities for a certain function appearing in the half-linear version of Picone's identity, we show that oscillatory properties of the half-linear second-order differential equation,, can be investigated via oscillatory properties of a certain associated second-order linear differential equation. This linear equation plays the role of a Sturmian majorant, in a certain sense, if, and the role of a minorant if.
