Effects of Time-Varying Impulses on Exponential Stability of Inertial BAM Neural Network with Mixed Time-Varying Delays
The present article is investigating the effects of time-varying impulses on exponential stability to a unique equilibrium point of inertial BAM neural networks with mixed time-varying delays. A suitable variable transformation is chosen to transform the original system into the system of first order differential equation. The fixed point theory of homeomorphism has been implemented to find the distributed delay-dependent sufficient condition which assured the system has a unique equilibrium point. In order to study the impulsive effects on stability problems, the time-varying impulses including stabilizing and destabilizing impulses are considered with the transformed system. Based on the matrix measure approach and the extended impulsive differential inequality for a time-varying delayed system, we have derived sufficient criteria in matrix measure form which ensure the exponential stability of the system towards an equilibrium point for two classes of activation functions. Further, different convergence rates of the system’s trajectories have been discussed for the cases of time-varying stabilizing and destabilizing impulses using the concept of an average impulsive interval. Finally, the efficiency of the theoretical results has been illustrated by providing two numerical examples
Stability analysis of impulsive stochastic Cohen–Grossberg neural networks with mixed time delays
This is the post print version of the article. The official published version can be obtained from the link - Copyright 2008 Elsevier LtdIn this paper, the problem of stability analysis for a class of impulsive stochastic Cohen–Grossberg neural networks with mixed delays is considered. The mixed time delays comprise both the time-varying and infinite distributed delays. By employing a combination of the M-matrix theory and stochastic analysis technique, a sufficient condition is obtained to ensure the existence, uniqueness, and exponential p-stability of the equilibrium point for the addressed impulsive stochastic Cohen–Grossberg neural network with mixed delays. The proposed method, which does not make use of the Lyapunov functional, is shown to be simple yet effective for analyzing the stability of impulsive or stochastic neural networks with variable and/or distributed delays. We then extend our main results to the case where the parameters contain interval uncertainties. Moreover, the exponential convergence rate index is estimated, which depends on the system parameters. An example is given to show the effectiveness of the obtained results.This work was supported by the Natural Science Foundation of CQ CSTC under grant 2007BB0430, the Scientific Research Fund of Chongqing Municipal Education Commission under Grant KJ070401, an International Joint Project sponsored by the Royal Society of the UK and the National Natural Science Foundation of China, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

Synchronization of coupled neural oscillators with heterogeneous delays
We investigate the effects of heterogeneous delays in the coupling of two
excitable neural systems. Depending upon the coupling strengths and the time
delays in the mutual and self-coupling, the compound system exhibits different
types of synchronized oscillations of variable period. We analyze this
synchronization based on the interplay of the different time delays and support
the numerical results by analytical findings. In addition, we elaborate on
bursting-like dynamics with two competing timescales on the basis of the
autocorrelation function.Comment: 18 pages, 14 figure
Time-delayed impulsive control for discrete-time nonlinear systems with actuator saturation
This paper focuses on the problem of time-delayed impulsive control with actuator saturation for discrete-time dynamical systems. By establishing a delayed impulsive difference inequality, combining with convex analysis and inequality techniques, some sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure exponential stability for discrete-time dynamical systems via time-delayed impulsive controller with actuator saturation. The designed controller admits the existence of some transmission delays in impulsive feedback law, and the control input variables are required to stay within an availability zone. Several numerical simulations are also given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed results. 
Delay-dependent criterion for exponential stability analysis of neural networks with time-varying delays
This note investigates the problem of exponential stability of neural networks with time-varying delays. To derive a less conservative stability condition, a novel augmented Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional (LKF) which includes triple and quadruple-integral terms is employed. In order to reduce the complexity of the stability test, the convex combination method is utilized to derive an improved delay dependent stability criterion in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). The superiority of the proposed approach is demonstrated by two comparative examples
