In this paper, the equivalence of the multiple time scales (MTS) method and the center manifold reduction (CMR) method is proved for computing the normal forms of ordinary differential equations and delay differential equations. The delay equations considered include general delay differential equations (DDE), neutral functional differential equations (NFDE) (or neutral delay differential equat...

This paper is concerned with a class of linear impulsive delay differential equations. Asymptotic stability of analytic solutions of this kind of equations is studied by the property of delay differential equations without impulsive perturbations. New numerical methods for this kind of equations are constructed. The convergence and asymptotic stability of the methods for this kind of equations ...

This paper studies the oscillation properties of higher order impulsive delay differential equations, and some sufficient conditions for all bounded solutions of this kind of higher order impulsive delay differential equations to be nonoscillatory are obtained by using a comparison theorem with corresponding nonimpulsive differential equations. AMS subject classification: 34C10, 34C15.

The current final project belongs to a subject in the master’s degree in Advanced Mathematics at the University of Barcelona. It deals with time delays which usually are arisen in differential equations. Firstly, the project develops the main important known results of Delay Differential Equations, which are a specific case of Functional Differential Equations. In particular, we shall also focu...

where W is a Wiener process, Z is a Hölder continuous process with Hölder exponent greater than 1/2, the coefficients a, b, c depend on the past of the process X . The integral with respect to W is understood in the usual Itô sense, while the one with respect to Z is understood in the pathwise sense. (A precise definition of all objects is given in Section 2.) We will call this equation a mixed...

memory‟. This approach is suitable for many mechanical systems, based on Newton‟s law: the current state (position + velocity) determines its future dynamics. But in many biological systems reaction does not come as immediate response to stimulation. It often appears with certain time-lags, so such systems are capable to accumulate past memory. Mathematically we can include time-lag, e.g. T in ...

We consider two identical oscillators with time delayed coupling, modelled by a system of delay differential equations. We reduce the system of delay differential equations to a phase model where the time delay enters as a phase shift. By analyzing the phase model, we show how the time delay affects the stability of phase-locked periodic solutions and causes stability switching of in-phase and ...

Chaos synchronization of coupled fractional order differential equation is receiving increasing attention because of its potential applications in secure communications and control processing. The aim of this paper is synchronization between two identical or different delay fractional-order chaotic systems in finite time. At first, the predictor-corrector method is used to obtain the solutions ...

Uncertain delay differential equation is a type of functional differential equations driven by canonical process. This paper presents a method to solve an uncertain delay differential equation, and proves an existence and uniqueness theorem of solution for uncertain delay differential equations under Lipschitz condition and linear growth condition by Banach fixed point theorem.
