A comparison principle and stability for large-scale impulsive delay differential systems

Abstract

This paper studies the stability of large-scale impulsive delay differential systems and impulsive neutral systems. By developing some impulsive delay differential inequalities and a comparison principle, sufficient conditions are derived for the stability of both linear and nonlinear large-scale impulsive delay differential systems and impulsive neutral systems. Examples are given to illustrate the main results. © Australian Mathematical Society 2005.
