On exponential stability of nonlinear systems with delaying argument

Many stability results concerning the trivial solution of nonlinear systems with delay are proved with the help of Lyapunov functionals. However, it is usually difficult to construct an appropriate Lyapunov functional. In this paper, exponential stability of the trivial solution of a class of nonlinear delay systems \[ x'(t)= \int^\mu_0 dR(s)x(t- s)+ F(t,x,x(t- h_1)\cdots, x(t- h_m)) \] is proposed with explicit conditions, where \(h_j\), \(1\leq j\leq m\), are nonnegative numbers, \(\max_{1\leq k\leq m}\), \(h_k\leq\mu\), the matrix valued function \(R(s)\) has bounded variation and \(F: [0,\infty)\times C^{n(m+1)}\to C^n\) is continuous and satisfies the condition \[ |F(t, y_0,y_1,\dots, y_m)|_{C^n}\leq \sum^m_{j= 0} q_j|y_j|_{C^n} \] for \(y_j\in \{h\in C^n:|h|_{C^n}\leq r\}\), \(0<r\leq\infty\) and \(q_j\), \(0\leq j\leq m\), are positive constants. Further, a bound for a region of attraction of the zero solution is derived. An example is given to illustrate the main result.
