چکیده
The purpose of this paper is to study a class of differential]difference equations with two delays. First, we investigate the local stability of the zero solution of the equation by analyzing the corresponding characteristic equation of the linearized equation. General stability criteria involving the delays and the parameters are obtained. Second, by choosing one of the delays as a bifurcation parameter, we show that the equation exhibits the Hopf bifurcation. The stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions are determined by using the center manifold theorem and the normal form theory. Finally, as an example, we analyze a simple motor control equation with two delays. Our results improve some of the existing results on this equation. Q 1999 Academic Press

Periodic Solutions of Differential Algebraic Equations with Time Delays: Computation and Stability Analysis
This paper concerns the computation and local stability analysis of periodic solutions to semi-explicit differential algebraic equations with time delays (delay DAEs) of index 1 and index 2. By presenting different formulations of delay DAEs, we motivate our choice of a direct treatment of these equations. Periodic solutions are computed by solving a periodic two-point boundary value problem, w...
متن کاملOn the Zeros of Transcendental Functions with Applications to Stability of Delay Differential Equations with Two Delays
In this paper, we first establish a basic theorem on the zeros of general transcendental functions. Based on the basic theorem, we develop a decomposition technique to investigate the stability of some exponential polynomials, that is, to find conditions under which all zeros of the exponential polynomials have negative real parts. The technique combines the D-decomposition and τ -decomposition...

In this paper, we consider a two-dimensional delay differential system with two delays. By analyzing the distribution of eigenvalues, linear stability of the equilibria and existence of Hopf, Bautin, and Hopf–Hopf bifurcations are obtained in which the time delays are used as the bifurcation parameter. General formula for the direction, period, and stability of the bifurcated periodic solutions...
متن کاملNumerical Stability Analysis in Respiratory Control System Models
Stability of the unique equilibrium in two mathematical models (based on chemical balance dynamics) of human respiration is examined using numerical methods. Due to the transport delays in the respiratory control system these models are governed by delay differential equations. First, a simplified two-state model with one delay is considered, then a five-state model with four delays (where the ...

A stage-structured predator-prey system with two time delays is considered. By analyzing the corresponding characteristic equation, the local stability of a positive equilibrium is investigated and the existence of Hopf bifurcations is established. Formulae are derived to determine the direction of bifurcations and the stability of bifurcating periodic solutions by using the normal form theory ...
