Abstract

The asymptotic stability of delay differential equation x′ (t) = Ax (t) + Bx (t τ) is concerned with, where A, B ε C d×d are constant complex matrices, x (t τ) = (x 1(tτ 1),x 2(tτ 2,...,x d (tτ d ))T, τ k > 0 (k = 1,...,d) stand for constant delays. Two criteria through evaluation of a harmonic function on the boundary of a certain region are obtained. The similar results for neutral delay differential equation x′(t)=Lx(t)+Mx(t−τ)+Nx′(t−τ) are also obtained, where L, M and N ε C d×d are constant complex matrices and τ>0 stands for constant delay. Numerical examples are showed to check the results which are more general than those already reported.
