Positive solutions and asymptotic behavior of delay differential equations with nonlinear impulses (Q1353762): Difference between revisions

The delay differential equation with nonlinear impulses \[ \dot x(t)+ \sum^n_{i=1} p_i(t)x(t- \tau_i)=0,\quad t\neq t_j,\quad t\geq t_0, \] \[ x(t^+_j)- x(t_j)= I_j(x(t_j)),\quad j=1,2,\dots \] is considered, where \(p_i\in C([t_0,\infty),\mathbb{R}^+)\), \(\tau_i\geq 0\), \(i=1,2,\dots, n\), \(I_j\in C(\mathbb{R},\mathbb{R})\), \(j=1,2,\dots\). A criterion for the existence of positive solutions for an equation without impulses is given. A comparison of asymptotic behavior of its solutions with solutions of equations with impulses is established. Conditions, under which every nonoscillatory solution of the considered problem tends to zero as \(t\to\infty\), are indicated.
