Abstract
The Euler-Cauchy differential equation and difference equation are well
known. Here we study a more general Euler-Cauchy dynamic equation. For this more
general equation when we have complex roots of the corresponding characteristic
equation we for the first time write solutions of this dynamic equation in terms of
a generalized exponential function and generalized sine and cosine functions. This
result is even new in the difference equation case. We then spend most of our time
studying the oscillation properties of the Euler-Cauchy dynamic equation. Several
oscillation results are given and an open problem is posed.
