Abstract

The purpose of this article is to investigate the existence and stability of traveling wave solutions for one-dimensional multilayer cellular neural networks. We first establish the existence of traveling wave solutions using the truncated technique. Then we study the asymptotic behaviors of solutions for the Cauchy problem of the neural model. Applying two kinds of comparison principles and the weighed energy method, we show that all solutions of the Cauchy problem converge exponentially to the traveling wave solutions provided that the initial data belong to a suitable weighted space.
