Stability of a homogeneous nonstationary system with linear delay (Q1780204)

The system of homogeneous nonstationary equations \[ \frac{dx(t)}{dt}=t^{\nu}(A_ix(t)+B_ix(\mu t)), \quad t\geq t_0>0, \] \[ \mu= \text{const.}, \quad 0<\mu<1, \qquad \nu= \text{const.},\quad \nu\geq-1+\varepsilon, \] is considered. Here, \(\varepsilon\) is a sufficiently small positive number, and \(A_i\) and \(B_i\) are \(m\times m\)-matrices. Moreover, if \(t_j<t<t_{j+1}\), \(j=0, 1, 2,\dots\), then these matrices are constant. Sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability of a solution of this system are obtained.
