We study the following nonautonomous difference equation:xn+1=(xnxn-1+pn)/(xn+xn-1),n=0,1,…, wherepn>0is a period-2 sequence and the initial valuesx-1,x0∈(0,∞). We show that the unique prime period-2 solution of the equation above is globally asymptotically stable.

Our aim is to investigate the global behavior of the following fourth-order rational difference equation: , where and the initial values . To verify that the positive equilibrium point of the equation is globally asymptotically stable, we used the rule of the successive lengths of positive and negative semicycles of nontrivial solutions of the aforementioned equation.

Sufficient conditions for local and global asymptotic stability of equilibria of some general classes of neural networks are presented. In the event that the interconnection matrix is block diagonally stable it is shown that the equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if the cells are dissipative at the equilibrium. For a special class of networks the conditions of dissipativity are reduced to more readily-tested conditions of passivity. Equilibria are shown to be asymptotically stable essentially if the cells are locally passive.

We study the global asymptotic stability of the following difference equation:xn+1=f(xn-k1,xn-k2,…,xn-ks;xn-m1,xn-m2,…,xn-mt),n=0,1,…,where0≤k1<k2<⋯<ksand0≤m1<m2<⋯<mtwith{k1,k2,…,ks}⋂‍{m1,m2,…,mt}=∅,the initial values are positive, andf∈C(Es+t,(0,+∞))withE∈{(0,+∞),[0,+∞)}. We give sufficient conditions under which the unique positive equilibriumx-of that equation is globally asymptotically stable.

The main goal of this paper is to investigate the global asymptotic behavior of the difference equationxn+1=β1xn/A1+yn,yn+1=β2xn+γ2yn/xn+yn,n=0,1,2,…withβ1,β2,γ2,A1∈(0,∞)and the initial value(x0,y0)∈[0,∞)×[0,∞)such thatx0+y0≠0. The major conclusion shows that, in the case whereγ2<β2, if the unique positive equilibrium(x-,y-)exists, then it is globally asymptotically stable.

We consider the higher-order nonlinear difference equation , , where parameters are positive real numbers and initial conditions are nonnegative real numbers, . We investigate the periodic character, the invariant intervals, and the global asymptotic stability of all positive solutions of the abovementioned equation. We show that the unique equilibrium of the equation is globally asymptotically stable under certain conditions.

We consider nonlinear systems in the strict-feedback form with simultaneous time-varying input and state delays, for which we design a predictor-based feedback controller. Our design is based on time-varying, infinite-dimensional backstepping transformations that we introduce, to convert the system to a globally asymptotically stable system. The solutions of the closed-loop system in the transformed variables can be found explicitly, which allows us to establish its global asymptotic stability. Based on the invertibility of the backstepping transformation, we prove global asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system in the original variables. Our design is illustrated by a numerical example.

In this paper, we propose a mathematical model of tuberculosis with two treatments and exogenous re-infection, in which the treatment is effective for a number of infectious individuals and it fails for some other infectious individuals who are being treated. We show that the model exhibits the phenomenon of backward bifurcation, where a stable disease-free equilibrium coexists with a stable endemic equilibria when the related basic reproduction number is less than unity. Also, it is shown that under certain conditions the model cannot exhibit backward bifurcation. Furthermore, it is shown in the absence of re-infection, the backward bifurcation phenomenon does not exist, in which the disease-free equilibrium of the model is globally asymptotically stable when the associated reproduction number is less than unity. The global asymptotic stability of the endemic equilibrium, when the associated reproduction number is greater than unity, is established using the geometric approach. Numerical simulations are presented to illustrate our main results.
