On the existence of solutions for nonlinear impulsive periodic viable problems

In this paper we prove the existence of periodic solutions for nonlinear impulsive viable problems monitored by differential inclusions of the type x′(t)∈F(t,x(t))+G(t,x(t)). Our existence theorems extend, in a broad sense, some propositions proved in [10] and improve a result due to Hristova-Bainov in [13].     

Exponential stability of nonlinear state-dependent delayed impulsive systems with applications

The exponential stability problem for impulsive systems subject to double state-dependent delays is studied in this paper, where state-dependent delay (SDD) is involved in both continuous dynamics and discrete dynamics and the boundedness of it with respect to states is prior unknown. According to impulsive control theory, we present some Lyapunov-based sufficient conditions for the exponential stability of the concerned system. It is shown that the stabilizing effect of SDD impulses on an unstable SDD system changes the stability and achieves desired performance. In addition, the destabilizing effect of SDD impulses is also fully considered and the corresponding sufficient conditions are derived, which reveals the fact that a stable SDD system can maintain its performance when it is subject to SDD impulsive disturbance. As an application, the proposed result can be employed to the stability analysis of impulsive genetic regulatory networks (GRNs) with SDD and the corresponding sufficient conditions are proposed in terms of the model transformation technique and the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) technique. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the derived results, we give two examples including impulsive GRNs with SDD and the impulsive controller design for the nonlinear system with SDD.

Solvability of impulsive neutral evolution differential inclusions with state-dependent delay

In this paper, we prove the existence of mild solutions for a first order impulsive neutral evolution differential inclusion with state-dependent delay. We transform it into an integral equation and use a fixed point theorem for condensing multi-valued maps. As an application of the main theorem, we consider the case when the multi-valued nonlinearity has sub-linear growth in the state variable.     

On the concept and existence of solutions for fractional impulsive systems with Hadamard derivatives

In this paper, a class of nonlinear fractional order differential impulsive systems with Hadamard derivative is discussed. First, a reasonable concept on the solutions of fractional impulsive Cauchy problems with Hadamard derivative and the corresponding fractional integral equations are established. Second, two fundamental existence results are presented by using standard fixed point methods. Finally, two examples are given to illustrate our theoretical results.     

Approximate controllability of second-order impulsive stochastic differential equations with state-dependent delay

In this paper we study a kind of second-order impulsive stochastic differential equations with state-dependent delay in a real separable Hilbert space. Some sufficient conditions for the approximate controllability of this system are formulated and proved under the assumption that the corresponding deterministic linear system is approximately controllable. The results concerning the existence and approximate controllability of mild solutions have been addressed by using strongly continuous cosine families of operators and the contraction mapping principle. At last, an example is given to illustrate the theory.     

The existence of mild solutions for impulsive fractional partial differential equations

Optimal impulsive space trajectories based on linear equations

The problem of minimizing the total characteristic velocity of a spacecraft having linear equations of motion and finitely many instantaneous impulses that result in jump discontinuities in velocity is considered. Fixed time and fixed end conditions are assumed. This formulation is flexible enough to allow some of the impulses to be specifieda priori by the mission planner. Necessary and sufficient conditions for solution of this problem are found without using specialized results from control theory or optimization theory. Solution of the two-point boundary-value problem is reduced to a problem of solving a specific set of equations. If the times of the impulses are specified, these equations are at most quadratic. Although this work is restricted to linear equations, there are situations where it has potential application. Some examples are the computation of the velocity increments of a spacecraft near a real or fictitious satellite or space station in a circular or more general Keplerian orbit. Another example is the computation of maneuvers of a spacecraft near a libration point in the restricted three-body problem.This project was supported by the 1988 NASA/ASEE Faculty Fellowship Program at the California Institute of Technology and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The work was performed in the Advanced Projects Group, Section 312, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California.

Qualitative analysis and applications of a kind of state-dependent impulsive differential equations

This paper analyzes a certain type of impulsive differential equations (IDEs). Several useful theorems for its periodic solutions and their stabilities are given. The key idea is that a periodically time-dependent IDE can be transformed into the state-dependent IDE. As applications of our theory, the optimization problems in population dynamics are studied. That is, the maximum sustainable yields of single population models with periodically impulsive constant harvesting are discussed. Furthermore, we apply these results to the studies of the order-1 periodic solutions and their stability of a single population model with stage structure in which the mature is impulsively proportionally harvested while the immature is impulsively added with the constant.     

On period-$k$ solution for a population system with state-dependent impulsive effect

The period-$k$ solutions of population differential system with state-dependent impulsive effect are investigated by the theory of discontinuous dynamical system. Through $G$-function theory, the necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for trajectory direction of a population differential system, and the results are better than the previous work. Also, the local stability of period-$k$ solutions is studied by the mapping structure and the theory of eigenvalue analysis. Furthermore, the existence of period-1 solution is investigated for a special impulsive population differential system, and the analytical condition is established. Finally, the trajectory of period-1 solution and the relationship between different parameters and the module of eigenvalues are illustrated.     

Approximate controllability of the non-autonomous impulsive evolution equation with state-dependent delay in Banach spaces

In this paper, we consider the non-autonomous semilinear impulsive differential equations with state-dependent delay. The approximate controllability results of the first-order systems are obtained in a separable reflexive Banach space, which has a uniformly convex dual. In order to establish sufficient conditions of the approximate controllability of such a system, we have used the theory of linear evolution systems, properties of the resolvent operator and Schauder’s fixed point theorem. Finally, we provide two concrete examples to validate our results.
