GLOBAL ASYMPTOTIC STABILITY IN N-SPECIES NONAUTONOMOUS LOTKA-VOLTERRACOMPETITIVE SYSTEMS WITH DELAYS

A delayed n-species nonautonomous Lotka-Volterra type competitive system without dominating instantaneous negative feedback is investigated. By means of a suitable Lyapunov functional, sufficient conditions are derived for the global asymptotic stability of the positive solutions of the system. As a corollary, it is shown that the global asymptotic stability of the positive solution is maintained provided that the delayed negative feedbacks dominate other interspecific interaction effects with delays and the delays are sufficiently small.

Global asymptotic stability for Hopfield-type neural networks with diffusion effects

The existence, uniqueness and global asymptotic stability for the equilibrium of Hopfield-type neural networks with diffusion effects are studied. When the activation functions are monotonously nondecreasing, differentiable, and the interconnected matrix is related to the Lyapunov diagonal stable matrix, the sufficient conditions guaranteeing the existence of the equilibrium of the system are obtained by applying the topological degree theory. By means of constructing the suitable average Lyapunov functions, the global asymptotic stability of the equilibrium of the system is also investigated. It is shown that the equilibrium （if it exists） is globally asymptotically stable and this implies that the equilibrium of the system is unique.

New Delay-dependent Global Asymptotic Stability Condition for Hopfield Neural Networks with Time-varying Delays

This paper deals with the global asymptotic stability problem for Hopfield neural networks with time-varying delays. By resorting to the integral inequality and constructing a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, a novel delay-dependent condition is established to guarantee the existence and global asymptotic stability of the unique equilibrium point for a given delayed Hopfield neural network. This criterion is expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities （LMIs）, which can be easily checked by utilizing the recently developed algorithms for solving LMIs. Examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and reduced conservatism of the proposed condition.

Lyapunov functions for studying global asymptotic stability of two rumor spreading models

In a previous work(2018,Commun.Theor.Phys.70,795–802),a new compartment model for the spreading of rumors was introduced and analyzed.However,only the local asymptotic stability of this model was discussed.In the present work,we first provide a rigorous mathematical analysis for the global asymptotic stability(GAS)of the above-mentioned rumor spreading model.By constructing suitable Lyapunov candidate functions,we obtain the GAS of a rumor-free(boundary)equilibrium point and a unique rumor-spreading(positive)equilibrium point.After that,we utilize the approach based on the Lyapunov candidate functions to study the GAS of another rumor spreading model with control strategies,which was proposed in(2022,Physica A 606,128157).As an important consequence,the GAS of the rumor spreading model with control strategies is determined fully without resorting to technical hypotheses used in the benchmark work.Lastly,the theoretical findings are supported by a set of illustrative numerical examples.The obtained results not only improve the ones constructed in the two abovementioned benchmark papers but also can be extended to study the global dynamics of other rumor propagation models in the context of both integer-order and fractional-order derivatives.

GLOBAL STABILITY OF SIRS EPIDEMIC MODELS WITH A CLASS OF NONLINEAR INCIDENCE RATES AND DISTRIBUTED DELAYS

In this article, we establish the global asymptotic stability of a disease-free equilibrium and an endemic equilibrium of an SIRS epidemic model with a class of nonlin- ear incidence rates and distributed delays. By using strict monotonicity of the incidence function and constructing a Lyapunov functional, we obtain sufficient conditions under which the endemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. When the nonlinear inci- dence rate is a saturated incidence rate, our result provides a new global stability condition for a small rate of immunity loss.

Global Stability and Hopf Bifurcation for a Virus Dynamics Model with General Incidence Rate and Delayed CTL Immune Response

In this work, we investigate an HIV-1 infection model with a general incidence rate and delayed CTL immune response. The model admits three possible equilibria, an infection-free equilibrium E*0, CTL-inactivated infection equilibrium E*1 and CTL-activated infection equilibrium E*2. We prove that in the absence of CTL immune delay, the model has exactly the basic behaviour model, for all positive intracellular delays, the global dynamics are determined by two threshold parameters R0 and R1, if R0 ≤ 1, E*0 is globally asymptotically stable, if R1 ≤ 1 < R0, E*1 is globally asymptotically stable and if R1 >1, E*2 is globally asymptotically stable. But if the CTL immune response delay is different from zero, then the behaviour of the model at E*2 changes completely, although R1 > 1, a Hopf bifurcation at E*2 is established. In the end, we present some numerical simulations.

This paper reports the global asymptotic stability of a three-species predator-prey system involving the prey-taxis. With the assumptions, we establish the global asymptotic stability results of its equilibria, respectively. Our results illustrate that 1) the global asymptotic stability of the semi-trivial equilibrium does not involve the prey-taxis coefficients χ, ξ;2) the global asymptotic stability of two boundary equilibria relies on a single prey-taxis coefficient χ and ξ, respectively;3) the global asymptotic stability of the unique positive equilibrium depends on two prey-taxis coefficients χ and ξ.

GLOBAL ASYMPTOTICAL PROPERTIES FOR A DIFFUSED HBV INFECTION MODEL WITH CTL IMMUNE RESPONSE AND NONLINEAR INCIDENCE

This article proposes a diffused hepatitis B virus （HBV） model with CTL immune response and nonlinear incidence for the control of viral infections. By means of different Lyapunov functions, the global asymptotical properties of the viral-free equilibrium and immune-free equilibrium of the model are obtained. Global stability of the positive equilibrium of the model is also considered. The results show that the free diffusion of the virus has no effect on the global stability of such HBV infection problem with Neumann homogeneous boundary conditions.

Stability analysis of Markovian jumping stochastic Cohen Grossberg neural networks with discrete and distributed time varying delays

In this paper, the global asymptotic stability problem of Markovian jumping stochastic Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with discrete and distributed time-varying delays （MJSCGNNs） is considered. A novel LMI-based stability criterion is obtained by constructing a new Lyapunov functional to guarantee the asymptotic stability of MJSCGNNs. Our results can be easily verified and they are also less restrictive than previously known criteria and can be applied to Cohen-Grossberg neural networks, recurrent neural networks, and cellular neural networks. Finally, the proposed stability conditions are demonstrated with numerical examples.
