\(\omega \) limit sets of solutions for a class of neutral functional differential equations (Q984518)

The system of neutral functional differential equations \[ (x_1(t)-x_2(t-r_2))' = - F_1(x_1(t))+G_1(x_2(t-r_2)), \] \[ (x_2(t)-x_1(t-r_1))' = -F_2(x_2(t))+G_2(x_1(t-r_1)) \] is considered, where \(F_i\) and \(G_i\) are continuous and \(r_i >0\) for \(i=1, 2\). If the \(F_i\) are nondecreasing and some additional conditions hold, it is shown that the \(\omega\) limit set of every bounded solution is composed of \((r_1 +r_2)\)-periodic solutions. It is claimed that this new result complements some known results.
