On simple stability criteria for nonlinear neutral systems with multiple time delays (Q712633)

The author proposes two easily verifiable sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of the trivial solution of the nonlinear nonautonomous neutral differential system \[ \begin{multlined} \dot x_i(t)=\sum_{j=1}^n a_{ij} (t) f_j (x_j(t)) +\sum_{j=1}^n b_{ij}f_j(x_j(t-\tau_{ij}^{(1)}))+\\ +\sum_{j=1}^n c_{ij}(t)\dot x_j(t-\tau_{ij}^{(2)}),\qquad i=1,2,\dotsc,n. \end{multlined} \] By introducing an adjusting function, the main results become less restrictive.
