We consider the generalized Burgers equation with and without a time delay when the boundary conditions are periodic with period 2π. For the generalized Burgers equation without a time delay, that is, ut = νuxx − uux + u+ h(x), 0 < x < 2π, t > 0, u(0, t) = u(2π, t), u(x,0) = u0(x), a Lyapunov function method is used to show boundedness and uniqueness of a steady state solution and global stabil...
