Stable rapidly oscillating solutions in delay differential equations with negative feedback (Q1854100): Difference between revisions

The authors consider the equation of the form \(x^\prime (t)=-2x(t)+F(x(t-1))\), \(x>0\), where the function \(F\) satisfies the negative feedback condition \(xF(x)<0\), \(x\in \mathbb{R}\setminus \{ 0\}\). Continuous initial functions are defined on the interval \([-1, 0]\). A solution to the considered equation is eventually slowly oscillating if there exists time \(T\) such that on \([T,\infty)\) the distance between subsequent zeros is greater than the delay. The solution which is not eventually slowly oscillating, is rapidly oscillating. Here, the special piecewise constant function \(F\) and the set of initial functions characterized by three real parameters which generate the rapidly oscillating solution are constructed. The solution is a stable fixed-point of a three-dimensional discrete map.
