The authors propose a nonlinear epidemic model by developing it with generalized piecewise constant argument (GPCA) introduced by Akhmet. The authors investigate invariance region for the considered model. For the taken model into consideration, they obtain a useful inequality concerning relation between the values of the solutions at the deviation argument and at any time for the epidemic model. The authors reach sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the solutions. Then, based on Lyapunov-Razumikhin method developed by Akhmet and Aruğaslan for the differential equations with generalized piecewise constant argument (EPCAG), sufficient conditions for the stability of the trivial equilibrium and the positive equilibrium are investigated. Thus, the theoretical results concerning the uniform stability of the equilibriums are given.

The authors consider a nonlinear epidemic equation by modeling it with generalized piecewise constant argument (GPCA). The authors investigate invariance region for the considered model. Sufficient conditions guaranteeing the existence and uniqueness of the solutions of the model are given by creating integral equations. An important auxiliary result giving a relation between the values of the unknown function solutions at the deviation argument and at any time t is indicated. By using Lyapunov-Razumikhin method developed by Akhmet and Aruğaslan for the differential equations with generalized piecewise constant argument (EPCAG), the stability of the trivial equilibrium is investigated in addition to the stability examination of the positive equilibrium transformed into the trivial equilibrium. Then sufficient conditions for the uniform stability and the uniform asymptotic stability of trivial equilibrium and the positive equilibrium are given.

Abstract Direct analytical and numerical solutions are constructed for linear and nonlinear vibration problems involving piecewise constant exertions. Existence and uniqueness of the solutions and the truncation errors of the numerical calculations are also analysed. With the employment of a piecewise constant argument, vibration systems with piecewise constant exertions are connected with the corresponding systems with continuous exertions.

By using the concept of differential equations with piecewise constant argument of generalized type, a model of stochastic cellular neural networks with piecewise constant argument is developed. Sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence and uniqueness of the equilibrium point for the addressed neural networks.pth moment exponential stability is investigated by means of Lyapunov functional, stochastic analysis, and inequality technique. The results in this paper improve and generalize some of the previous ones. An example with numerical simulations is given to illustrate our results.

In this letter, we consider a model of Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with piecewise constant argument of generalized type and impulses. Sufficient conditions ensuring the existence and uniqueness of solutions are obtained. Based on constructing a new differential inequality with piecewise constant argument and impulse and using the Lyapunov function method, we derive sufficient conditions ensuring the global exponential stability of equilibrium point, with approximate exponential convergence rate. An example is given to illustrate the validity and advantage of the theoretical results.

We firstly employ the fixed point theory to study the stability of cellular neural networks without delays and with time-varying delays. Some novel and concise sufficient conditions are given to ensure the existence and uniqueness of solution and the asymptotic stability of trivial equilibrium at the same time. Moreover, these conditions are easily checked and do not require the differentiability of delays.

A reaction–diffusion plankton system with delay and quadratic closure term is investigated to study the interactions between phytoplankton and zooplankton. Sufficient conditions independent of diffusion and delay are obtained for the persistence of the system. Our conclusions show that diffusion can induce Turing instability, delay can influence the stability of the positive equilibrium and induce Hopf bifurcations to occur. The computational formulas which determine the properties of bifurcating periodic solutions are given by calculating the normal form on the center manifold, and some numerical simulations are carried out for illustrating the theoretical results.

This work is devoted to investigating the stability of impulsive cellular neural networks with time-varying and distributed delays. We use the new method of fixed point theory to obtain some new and concise sufficient conditions to ensure the existence and uniqueness of solution and the global exponential stability of trivial equilibrium. The presented algebraic criteria are easily checked and do not require the differentiability of delays.

AbstractUsing the method of exponential dichotomies, we establish a new existence and uniqueness theorem for almost automorphic solutions of differential equations with piecewise constant argument of the form $$\begin{eqnarray*}{x}^{\prime } (t)= A(t)x(t)+ B(t)x(\lfloor t\rfloor )+ f(t), \quad t\in \mathbb{R} ,\end{eqnarray*}$$ where $\lfloor \cdot \rfloor $ denotes the greatest integer function, and $A(t), B(t): \mathbb{R} \rightarrow { \mathbb{R} }^{q\times q} $, $f(t): \mathbb{R} \rightarrow { \mathbb{R} }^{q} $ are all almost automorphic.

We study the oscillation and asymptotic behavior of third-order nonlinear delay differential equation with piecewise constant argument of the form(r2(t)(r1(t)x'(t))')'+p(t)x'(t)+f(t,x([t]))=0. We establish several sufficient conditions which insure that any solution of this equation oscillates or converges to zero. Some examples are given to illustrate the importance of our results.
