Asymptotic integration of a system of differential equations with a large parameter in the critical case

For a linear normal system of ordinary differential equations with rapidly oscillating coefficients in a critical case, the existence of a unique periodic solution is proved, its complete asymptotic expansion is constructed and justified, and Lyapunov stability and instability conditions are found. The asymptotic series constructed is shown to converge absolutely and uniformly to the solution.     

Periodic and almost periodic solution for a non-autonomous epidemic predator-prey system with time-delay

In this paper, we studied a non-autonomous predator-prey system with discrete time-delay, where there is epidemic disease in the predator. By using some techniques of the differential inequalities and delay differential inequalities, we proved that the system is permanent under some appropriate conditions. When all the coefficients of the system is periodic, we obtained the existence and global attractivity of the positive periodic solution by Mawhin’s continuation theorem and constructing a suitable Lyapunov functional. Furthermore, when the coefficients of the system are not absolutely periodic but almost periodic, sufficient conditions are also derived for the existence and asymptotic stability of the almost periodic solution.     

On the class of proper linear differential systems with unbounded coefficients

Proper linear differential systems (whose coefficients are not necessarily bounded on the half-line) are defined as systems for which there exists a generalized Lyapunov transformation reducing them to a diagonal system with constant coefficients (Basov). We prove that Lyapunov’s original definition of a proper system and the Perron and Vinograd criteria hold for the class of proper systems as well as for the class of proper systems with uniformly bounded coefficients. We show that the Lyapunov properness criterion for a triangular system fails for systems with unbounded coefficients; namely, we construct an improper system with the following properties: the Lyapunov exponents of all nonzero solutions of that system are finite and exact, and for an arbitrary reduction of this system by a generalized Lyapunov transformation to triangular form, its diagonal coefficients have finite exact mean values, whose set with regard of multiplicities is independent of the choice of the transformation. In addition, we show that the main property of proper systems with uniformly bounded coefficients (preservation of conditional exponential stability as well as the dimension of the exponentially stable manifold and the exponent of the asymptotic behavior of solutions under perturbations of higher-order smallness) holds for proper systems with unbounded coefficients as well.     

Asymptotic integration of a system of differential equations with high-frequency terms in the critical case

We construct the complete asymptotics of a periodic solution of a linear normal system of differential equations with high-frequency coefficients. We study the Lyapunov stability and instability of that solution. More specifically, we consider the critical case in which the matrix coefficient of the formally averaged stationary system has one eigenvector and one generalized (in the Vishik-Lyusternik sense) associated vector.     

On the spectrum of discrete time-varying linear systems

In this paper, we investigate the influence of small perturbations of the coefficients of discrete time-varying linear systems on the Lyapunov exponents. For that purpose we introduce the concepts of central exponents of the system and we show that these exponents describe the possible changes in the Lyapunov exponents under small perturbations. Finally, we present several formulas for the central exponents in terms of the transition matrix of the system and the so-called upper sequences. The results are illustrated by numerical examples.     

Numerical simulation of the soft contact dynamics of an impacting bilinear oscillator

Systems constituted by moving components that make intermittent contacts with each other can be modelled by a system of ordinary differential equations containing piecewise linear terms. We consider a soft impact bilinear oscillator for which we obtain bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov coefficients, return maps and phase portraits of the response. Besides Lyapunov coefficients diagrams, bifurcation diagrams are represented in terms of both non-dimensional time instants of contact (when the mass impacts the obstacle) and of portions of contact duration (the percentage-time interval when the material point is inside the obstacle) vs. non-dimensional external force frequency (or amplitude). The second kind of diagrams is needed because the contact duration (or the complementary flight time duration) are quantities that can easily be measured in an experiment aiming at confirming the validity of the present model. Lyapunov coefficients are evaluated converting the piecewise linear system of ordinary differential equations into a map, the so-called impact map, where time and velocity corresponding to a given impact are evaluated as functions of time and velocity corresponding to the previous impact. Thus, the usual methods related to this last map are used. The trajectories are represented in terms of return maps (all points in the time-velocity plane involved in the impact events) and phase portraits (the trajectory-itself in the displacement-velocity plane). In the bifurcation diagrams, transition between different responses is evidenced and a perfect correlation between chaotic (periodic) attractors and positive (negative) values of the maximum Lyapunov coefficient is found.     

On Stability of Solutions to Quasilinear Periodic Systems of Differential Equations

We consider a quasilinear system of differential equations with periodic coefficients in the linear terms. We obtain estimates for the attraction domain of the zero solution and establish estimates for the decay rate of solutions at infinity. The results are stated in terms of the integrals of the norm of a periodic solution to the Lyapunov differential equation.     

Positive almost periodic solution of discrete nonlinear survival red blood cells model with feedback control

In this paper, we consider a discrete survival red blood cells system with feedback control. Assuming that the coefficients in the system are almost periodic sequences, by using Lyapunov functional approach, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of the almost periodic solution which is uniformly asymptotically stable.     

Almost periodic Szeg? cocycles with uniformly positive Lyapunov exponents

We exhibit examples of almost periodic Verblunsky coefficients for which Herman’s subharmonicity argument applies and yields the result that the associated Lyapunov exponents are uniformly bounded away from zero. As an immediate consequence of this result, we obtain examples of almost periodic Verblunsky coefficients for which the associated probability measure on the unit circle is pure point.     

On the Robust Stability of Solutions to Periodic Systems of Neutral Type

Under consideration is some class of linear systems of neutral type with periodic coefficients. We obtain the conditions on perturbations of the coefficients which preserve the exponential stability of the zero solution. Using a special Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional, we establish some estimates that characterize the rate of exponential decay at infinity of the solutions of the perturbed systems.     

A Predator–Prey system with anorexia response

A Predator–Prey system is proposed with an introduction of anorexia response on one prey population. By using the comparison theorem and constructing suitable Lyapunov function, we study such Predator–Prey system with almost periodic coefficients. Some sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of a unique almost periodic solution. Numerical simulations of Predator–Prey system with anorexia response and the one without anorexia response are performed. Our observations suggest that anorexia response on one prey population has a destabilizing effect on the persistence of such Predator–Prey system.     

Explicit stability conditions for integro-differential equations with periodic coefficients

New explicit stability conditions are derived for a linear integro-differential equation with periodic operator coefficients. The equation under consideration describes oscillations of thin-walled viscoelastic structural members driven by periodic loads. To develop stability conditions two approaches are combined. The first is based on the direct Lyapunov method of constructing stability functionals. It allows stability conditions to be derived for unbounded operator coefficients, but fails to correctly predict the critical loads for high-frequency excitations. The other approach is based on transforming the equation under consideration in such a way that an appropriate ‘differential’ part of the new equation would possess some reserve of stability. Stability conditions for the transformed equation are obtained by using a technique of integral estimates. This method provides acceptable estimates of the critical forces for periodic loads, but can be applied to equations with bounded coefficients only. Combining these two approaches, we derive explicit stability conditions which are close to the Floquet criterion when the integral term vanishes. These conditions are applied to the stability problem for a viscoelastic bar compressed by periodic forces. The effect of material and structural parameters on the critical load is studied numerically. © 1998 B. G. Teubner Stuttgart–John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

Adaptive control of linear systems with coordinatewise-parametric perturbations of white noise type

Conditions for the mean-square dissipativity of adaptive stabilization systems for a linear object under coordinate-parametric perturbations of white noise type are obtained. A linear adaptive regulator with adjustable coefficients is chosen. For adjusting parameters, an adaptation algorithm is synthesized by the passification method. The number of inputs in objects under consideration may differ from that of outputs. The proof is based on the construction of a quadratic stochastic Lyapunov function. (In the case of purely parametric perturbations, the obtained conditions are known to be necessary and sufficient for the existence of a Lyapunov function with these properties.) Dissipativity conditions for the constructed closed system are obtained; it is shown that, in some special cases, the dissipativity of the closed system is preserved under white-noise perturbations of any intensity.     

随机非自治Schoener竞争系统的周期解（英文）

In this paper, we consider a stochastic non-autonomous Schoener competitive system. Firstly, we prove the existence of positive periodic solution when the coefficients of Schoener competitive system satisfied certain conditions. Then the global attractiveness of positive periodic solution is also proved by constructing appropriate Lyapunov function. In addition, we show that the stronger noises will lead to the extinction of competitive systems.     

Suppressing grazing chaos in impacting system by structural nonlinearity

In this note we investigate the influence of structural nonlinearity of a simple cantilever beam impacting system on its dynamic responses close to grazing incidence by a means of numerical simulation. To obtain a clear picture of this effect we considered two systems exhibiting impacting motion, where the primary stiffness is either linear (piecewise linear system) or nonlinear (piecewise nonlinear system). Two systems were studied by constructing bifurcation diagrams, basins of attractions, Lyapunov exponents and parameter plots. In our analysis we focused on the grazing transitions from no impact to impact motion. We observed that the dynamic responses of these two similar systems are qualitatively different around the grazing transitions. For the piecewise linear system, we identified on the parameter space a considerable region with chaotic behaviour, while for the piecewise nonlinear system we found just periodic attractors. We postulate that the structural nonlinearity of the cantilever impacting beam suppresses chaos near grazing.     

EXISTENCE AND ATTRACTIVITY OF ALMOST PERIODIC SOLUTION FOR SHUNTING INHIBITORY CELLULAR NEURAL NETWORKS WITH CONTINUOUSLY DISTRIBUTED DELAYS AND VARIABLE COEFFICIENTS

In this paper, a class of two-dimensional shunting inhibitory cellular neural networks with distributed delays and variable coefficients system is studied. By using the Schauder's fixed point theorem and Lyapunov function, we obtain some sufficient conditions about the existence and attractivity of almost periodic solutions to the above system, and all its solutions converge to such almost periodic solution. An example is given to illustrate that the conditions of our results are feasible.     

Stabilization of stationary affine control systems with discrete time

We obtain new sufficient conditions for the local and global asymptotic stabilization of the zero solution of a nonlinear affine control system with discrete time and with constant coefficients by a continuous state feedback. We assume that the zero solution of the free system is Lyapunov stable. For systems with linear drift, we construct a bounded control in the problem of global asymptotic state and output stabilization. Corollaries for bilinear systems are obtained.
