Abstract:
Applying the modified half-linear Prufer angle, we study oscillation
properties of the half-linear differential equation
![$$
[ r(t) t^{p-1} \Phi(x')]' + \frac{s(t)}{t \log^pt} \Phi(x) = 0, \quad
\Phi(x)=|x|^{p-1}\hbox{sgn} x.

We show that this equation is conditionally oscillatory in a very general case.
Moreover, we identify the critical oscillation constant
(the borderline depending on the functions r and s which separates
the oscillatory and non-oscillatory equations).
Note that the used method is different from the standard method based
on the half-linear Prufer angle.
