Delay-dependent stability of numerical methods for delay differential systems of neutral type (Q2411648)

The paper investigates the stability of numerical methods for delay differential systems of neutral type. The authors provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the analytical stability of linear neutral equations. By applying the principle of the argument it is possible to determine delay-dependent stability for the approximation schemes based on linear multi-step and Runge-Kutta methods. The paper provides theorems on weak delay-dependent stability of the schemes and illustrates the results with numerical examples.
