Nonoscillation of First-Order Dynamic Equations with Several Delays

<p/> <p>For dynamic equations on time scales with positive variable coefficients and several delays, we prove that nonoscillation is equivalent to the existence of a positive solution for the generalized characteristic inequality and to the positivity of the fundamental function. Based o...
