Asymptotic behavior of solutions to a class of non-autonomous delay differential equations (Q321808)

Given some continuous positive bounded functions \(\tau(t)\) and \(\gamma(t)\), and some positive odd number \(n\), the main result of the paper states that every solution of the equation NEWLINE\[NEWLINEx'(t)=\gamma(t)[-x^{\frac{1}{n}}(t)+x^{\frac{1}{n}}(t-\tau(t))]NEWLINE\]NEWLINE tends to a constant as \(t\to+\infty\), for certain initial conditions. The work concludes with some examples illustrating the results by numerical simulation and formulate open problems in this direction.
