Abstract

In this paper, we have characterized the nature and form of solutions of the following nonlinear delay-differential equation: $$f^{n}(z)+\sum_{i=1}^{n-1}b_{i}f^{i}(z)+q(z)e^{Q(z)}L(z,f)=P(z),$$ where $b_i\in\mathbb{C}$, $L(z,f)$ are a linear delay-differential polynomial of $f$; $n$ is positive integers; $q$, $Q$ and $P$ respectively are nonzero, nonconstant and any polynomials. Different special cases of our result will accommodate all the results of [J. Math. Anal. Appl., 452(2017), 1128-1144; Mediterr. J. Math., 13(2016), 3015-3027; Open Math., 18(2020), 1292-1301]. Thus our result can be considered as an improvement of all of them. We have also illustrated a handful number of examples to show that all the cases as demonstrated in our theorem actually occur and consequently the same are automatically applicable to the previous results.
