On the behavior of the solutions for linear autonomous neutral delay difference equations

Book Review

Linear difference equations with variable delay are considered. The most important result of this paper is a new oscillation criterion, which should be looked upon as the discrete analogue of a well-known oscillation criterion for first order linear delay differential equations. This criterion constitutes a substantial improvement of an oscillation result due to the first author (Funkcial. Ekvac. 34 (1991), pp. 157–172). The results obtained extend the ones by the authors and Stavroulakis (J. Differ. Equ. Appl. 10 (2004), pp. 419–435) concerning the special case of linear difference equations with constant delay.     

On the behavior of the solutions to periodic linear delay differential and difference equations

Some new results on the behavior of the solutions to periodic linear delay differential equations as well as to periodic linear delay difference equations are given. These results are obtained by the use of two distinct roots of the corresponding (so called) characteristic equation.     

Oscillation of certain partial difference equations

In this paper we consider a class of nonlinear delay partial difference equations and a class of linear delay partial difference equations with variable coefficients, which may change sign. We obtain oscillation criteria for these equations. There are no results for the oscillation of these equations up to now.     

Sufficient Conditions for the Oscillation of Non-autonomous Difference Equations

Abstract In this paper, we obtain sufficient conditions for the oscillation of the non-autonomous differenceequations x(n 1)-x(n) sum from i=1 to m p_i(n)x(n-r_i(n))=0,which are the discrete analog of the delay differential equations considered in[1].     

Convergent solutions of linear functional difference equations in phase space

By using weighted summable dichotomies and Schauder's fixed point theorem, we prove the existence of convergent solutions of linear functional difference equations. We apply our result to Volterra difference equations with infinite delay.     

The fundamental existence theorem on invariant fiber bundles

For discrete dynamical systems the theory of invariant manifolds is well known to be of vital importance. In terms of difference equations this theory is basically concerned with autonomous equations. However, the crucial and currently most difficult questions in this field are related to non-periodic, in particular chaotic motions. Since this topic - even in the autonomous context is an intrinsically time-variant matter. There is and urgent need for a non-autonomous version of invariant manifold theory. In this paper we present we present a very general version of the classical result on stable and unstable manifolds for hyperbolic fixed points of diffeomorphisms. In fact, we drop the assumption of invertibility of the mapping, we consider non-autonomous difference equations rather than mappings In effect, we generalize the notion of invariant manifold to the concept of invariant fiber bundle.     

Stability Criteria for Solutions of Systems of Linear Deterministic or Stochastic Delay Difference Equations with Continuous Time

We give spectral and algebraic coefficient criteria (necessary and sufficient conditions) as well as sufficient algebraic coefficient conditions for the Lyapunov asymptotic stability of solutions to systems of linear deterministic or stochastic delay difference equations with continuous time under white noise coefficient perturbations for the case in which all delay ratios are rational. For stochastic systems, mean-square asymptotic stability is studied. The Lyapunov function method is used. Our criteria on algebraic coefficients and our sufficient conditions are stated in terms of matrix Lyapunov equations (for deterministic systems) and matrix Sylvester equations (for stochastic systems).     

Piecewise linear difference equations and convexity

This note presents a new method for analysing piecewise linear difference equations. The equations are considered in their natural phase space and interpreted via their associated semigroups and number theoretic graphs.     

Asymptotic behaviour and stability to linear non-autonomous neutral delay difference equations

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behaviour and the stability of a class of linear neutral delay difference equations with variable coefficients and constant delays. Via an appropriate solution of the so-called generalized characteristic equation, an asymptotic criterion and a stability result are established.

Asymptotic behavior of solutions of functional difference equations

For linear functional difference equations, we obtain some results on the asymptotic behavior of solutions, which correspond to a Perron-type theorem for linear ordinary difference equations. We also apply our results to Volterra difference equations with infinite delay.     

Exponential dichotomy and boundedness for retarded functional difference equations

We characterize the exponential dichotomy of difference equations with infinite delay. We apply the results to study the robustness of exponential dichotomy. This kind of dichotomy gives us relevant information about boundedness of solutions for several perturbed quasi linear systems with infinite delay. Applications to Volterra difference equations are shown.

Laguerre polynomial approach for solving linear delay difference equations

This paper presents a numerical method for the approximate solution of mth-order linear delay difference equations with variable coefficients under the mixed conditions in terms of Laguerre polynomials. The aim of this article is to present an efficient numerical procedure for solving mth-order linear delay difference equations with variable coefficients. Our method depends mainly on a Laguerre series expansion approach. This method transforms linear delay difference equations and the given conditions into matrix equation which corresponds to a system of linear algebraic equation. The reliability and efficiency of the proposed scheme are demonstrated by some numerical experiments and performed on the computer algebraic system Maple.     

A note on the dichotomy spectrum

In many ways, exponential dichotomies are an appropriate hyperbolicity notion for nonautonomous linear differential or difference equations. The corresponding dichotomy spectrum generalizes the classical set of eigenvalues or Floquet multipliers and is therefore of eminent importance in a stability theory for explicitly time-dependent systems, as well as to establish a geometric theory of nonautonomous problems with ingredients like invariant manifolds and normal forms, or to deduce continuation and bifurcation techniques.

In this note, we derive some invariance and perturbation properties of the dichotomy spectrum for nonautonomous linear difference equations in Banach spaces. They easily follow from the observation that the dichotomy spectrum is strongly related to a weighted shift operator on an ambient sequence space.     

On contraction of nonlinear difference equations with time‐varying delays

General nonlinear difference equations with time‐varying delays are considered. Explicit criteria for contraction of such equations are presented. Then some simple sufficient conditions for global exponential stability of equilibria and for stability of invariant sets are derived. Furthermore, explicit criteria for existence, uniqueness and global exponential stability of periodic solutions are derived. Finally, the obtained results are applied to time‐varying discrete‐time neural networks with delay.
