ON PERIODIC SOLUTIONS OF FUNCTIONAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH INFINITE DELAY

In this paper,using Mawhin's continuation theorem in the theory of coincidence degree,we first prove the general existence theorem of periodic solutions for F.D.Es with infinite delay:dx(t)/dt=f(t,x_t),x(t)∈R^n,which is an extension of Mawhin's existence theorem of periodic solutions of F.D.Es with finite delay.Second,as an application of it,we obtain the existence theorem of positive periodic solutions of the Lotka-Volterra equations:dx(t)/dt=x(t)(a-kx(t)-by(t)),dy(t)/dt=-cy(t)+d integral from n=0 to +∞ x(t-s)y(t-s)dμ(s)+p(t).

STABILITY AND ALMOST PERIODIC SOLUTIONS OF NEUTRAL FUNCTIONAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH INFINITE DELAY

For the operator D(t), we prove the inherence theorem, Theorem 2. Basing on it, we study the stability with respect to the hull for neutral functional differential equations with infinite delay. We prove that if periodic Eq.(1) possesses the solution ξ(t) that is uniformly asymptotically stable with respect to then Eq.(1) has an mω-periodic solution p(t), for some integer m≥1. Furthermore, we prove that if the almost periodic Eq.(1) possesses the solution ξ(t) that is stable under disturbance from H+ (ξ,D,f), then Eq.(1) has an almost periodic solution.

DYNAMICS OF NEW CLASS OF HOPFIELD NEURAL NETWORKS WITH TIME-VARYING AND DISTRIBUTED DELAYS

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics and the global exponential stability of a new class of Hopfield neural network with time-varying and distributed delays. In fact, the properties of norms and the contraction principle are adjusted to ensure the existence as well as the uniqueness of the pseudo almost periodic solution, which is also its derivative pseudo almost periodic. This results are without resorting to the theory of exponential dichotomy. Furthermore, by employing the suitable Lyapunov function, some delayindependent sufficient conditions are derived for exponential convergence. The main originality lies in the fact that spaces considered in this paper generalize the notion of periodicity and almost periodicity. Lastly, two examples are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed theoretical results.

PERIODICITY IN FUNCTIONAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

A criterion for the existence of T-periodic solutions of functional differential equations with finite delay is established, in which the uniform boundedness of solutions has been removed from the conditions. The obtained result is the counterpart of the one recently obtained for infinite delay equations, but the conditions in this work are simplified and much easier to verify. Also, the proof has been improved to be more clear and compact.

A frequency-domain method for solving linear time delay systems with constant coefficients

In an active control system, time delay will occur due to processes such as signal acquisition and transmission, calculation,and actuation. Time delay systems are usually described by delay differential equations（DDEs）. Since it is hard to obtain an analytical solution to a DDE, numerical solution is of necessity. This paper presents a frequency-domain method that uses a truncated transfer function to solve a class of DDEs. The theoretical transfer function is the sum of infinite items expressed in terms of poles and residues. The basic idea is to select the dominant poles and residues to truncate the transfer function,thus ensuring the validity of the solution while improving the efficiency of calculation. Meanwhile, the guideline of selecting these poles and residues is provided. Numerical simulations of both stable and unstable delayed systems are given to verify the proposed method, and the results are presented and analysed in detail.

THE POSITIVE PERIODIC SOLUTIONS OF PERIODIC RFDEs WITH INFINITE DELAY

This paper is concerned with the periodic retarded functional differential equati-ons(RFDEs) with infinite delay. The sufficient conditions for the existence of noncon-stant positive periodic solutions are established by combining the theory of monotone semiflows generated by RFDEs with infinite delay and the fixed point theorems of solution operators. A nontrivial application of the results obtained here to a well-known nonautonomous Lotka-Volterra system with infinite delay is also presented.
