New criteria for exponential stability of linear neutral differential systems with distributed delays

summary:We present new explicit criteria for exponential stability of general linear neutral time-varying differential systems. Particularly, our results give extensions of the well-known stability criteria reported in [3,11] to linear neutral time-varying differential systems with distributed delays

A novel delay-dependent asymptotic stability conditions for differential and Riemann-Liouville fractional differential neutral systems with constant delays and nonlinear perturbation

The novel delay-dependent asymptotic stability of a differential and Riemann-Liouville fractional differential neutral system with constant delays and nonlinear perturbation is studied. We describe the new asymptotic stability criterion in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), using the application of zero equations, model transformation and other inequalities. Then we show the new delay-dependent asymptotic stability criterion of a differential and Riemann-Liouville fractional differential neutral system with constant delays. Furthermore, we not only present the improved delay-dependent asymptotic stability criterion of a differential and Riemann-Liouville fractional differential neutral system with single constant delay but also the new delay-dependent asymptotic stability criterion of a differential and Riemann-Liouville fractional differential neutral equation with constant delays. Numerical examples are exploited to represent the improvement and capability of results over another research as compared with the least upper bounds of delay and nonlinear perturbation.This work is supported by Science Achievement Scholarship of Thailand (SAST), Research and Academic Affairs Promotion Fund, Faculty of Science, Khon Kaen University, Fiscal year 2020 and National Research Council of Thailand and Khon Kaen University, Thailand (6200069)

Optimal linear stability condition for scalar differential equations with distributed delay

Linear scalar differential equations with distributed delays appear in the study of the local stability of nonlinear differential equations with feedback, which are common in biology and physics. Negative feedback loops tend to promote oscillations around steady states, and their stability depends on the particular shape of the delay distribution. Since in applications the mean delay is often the only reliable information available about the distribution, it is desirable to find conditions for stability that are independent from the shape of the distribution. We show here that for a given mean delay, the linear equation with distributed delay is asymptotically stable if the associated differential equation with a discrete delay is asymptotically stable. We illustrate this criterion on a compartment model of hematopoietic cell dynamics to obtain sufficient conditions for stability

Synchronization of coupled neutral-type neural networks with jumping-mode-dependent discrete and unbounded distributed delays

This is the post-print version of the Article. The official published version can be accessed from the links below - Copyright @ 2013 IEEE.In this paper, the synchronization problem is studied for an array of N identical delayed neutral-type neural networks with Markovian jumping parameters. The coupled networks involve both the mode-dependent discrete-time delays and the mode-dependent unbounded distributed time delays. All the network parameters including the coupling matrix are also dependent on the Markovian jumping mode. By introducing novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals and using some analytical techniques, sufficient conditions are derived to guarantee that the coupled networks are asymptotically synchronized in mean square. The derived sufficient conditions are closely related with the discrete-time delays, the distributed time delays, the mode transition probability, and the coupling structure of the networks. The obtained criteria are given in terms of matrix inequalities that can be efficiently solved by employing the semidefinite program method. Numerical simulations are presented to further demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.This work was supported in part by the Royal Society of the U.K., the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grants 61074129, 61174136 and 61134009, and the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province of China under Grants BK2010313 and BK2011598

Relative controllability of linear difference equations

In this paper, we study the relative controllability of linear difference equations with multiple delays in the state by using a suitable formula for the solutions of such systems in terms of their initial conditions, their control inputs, and some matrix-valued coefficients obtained recursively from the matrices defining the system. Thanks to such formula, we characterize relative controllability in time $T$ in terms of an algebraic property of the matrix-valued coefficients, which reduces to the usual Kalman controllability criterion in the case of a single delay. Relative controllability is studied for solutions in the set of all functions and in the function spaces $L^p$ and $\mathcal C^k$. We also compare the relative controllability of the system for different delays in terms of their rational dependence structure, proving that relative controllability for some delays implies relative controllability for all delays that are "less rationally dependent" than the original ones, in a sense that we make precise. Finally, we provide an upper bound on the minimal controllability time for a system depending only on its dimension and on its largest delay
