A new generalization of Halanay-type inequality and its applications
Journal of Inequalities and Applications volume 2018, Article number: 300 (2018)
Abstract
In this paper, in order to study the dissipativity of nonlinear neutral functional differential equations, a generalization of the Halanay inequality is given. We apply this generalized Halanay inequality to an analysis of the dissipativity of two classes of nonlinear neutral delay integro-differential equations and the sufficient conditions are presented to ensure these systems are dissipative.
1 Introduction
In 1966, in order to discuss the stability of the zero solution of the delay differential equation
Halanay introduced the following lemma (see [1] p. 378).
Lemma 1.1
(Basic Halanay inequality)
Assume that \(\tau\geq0\) and \(v(t)\) is a positive function defined on \([t_{0}-\tau,+\infty)\), with derivative \(v'(t)\) on \([t_{0},+\infty)\). If
where \(\alpha>\beta>0\), then there exist \(\gamma>0\) and \(k>0\) such that
The Halanay inequality became a powerful tool in the stability theory of delay differential equations, therefore many authors improved or generalized it to more general type and used it for investigating the stability and dissipativity of various functional differential equations. We refer the reader to the papers, for instance, of Baker and Tang [2], Agarwal, Kim and Sen [3, 4], Baker [5], Liz and Trofimchuk [6], Tian [7], Wen, Yu and Wang [8, 9], Liu et al. [10], Wang [11], Hien et al. [12], and Gan [13].
On the other hand, many interesting problems in physics and engineering are modeled by dissipative dynamical systems. These systems are characterized by the property of possessing a bounded absorbing set, which all trajectories enter in a finite time and thereafter remain inside of. In the study of dissipative systems, this asymptotic behavior of the system is of interest and important (see [14]). In 1994, Humphries and Stuart [15] first studied the analytical and numerical dissipativity of initial value problems (IVPs) in ODEs. Hereafter, a number of results on the analytical and numerical dissipativity with respect to various types of differential equations are presented (such as found in [16–21]).
In this paper, we first present a more general Halanay-type inequality in Sect. 2. Then, in Sect. 3, we use this inequality to discuss the analytical dissipativity of two classes of nonlinear neutral delay integro-differential equations (NDIDEs) and some sufficient conditions which ensure the systems to be dissipative are given. Finally, the paper ends with a conclusion.
2 The generalized Halanay inequality
For simplicity of presentation, we denote \(f^{[t_{1},t_{2}]}:=\sup_{t_{1} \leq\xi\leq t_{2}}f(\xi)\) and \(f^{[t_{1},+\infty)}:=\sup_{\xi\geq t_{1}}f(\xi)\) for a bounded function f.
Theorem 2.1
Assume that \(\tau\geq0\) and \(u(t), w(t)\) are non-negative functions defined on \([t_{0}-\tau,+\infty)\), with derivative \(u'(t)\) on \([t_{0},+\infty)\). If
for \(t\geq t_{0}\) and
and there exists a constant \(\sigma>0\) such that
Then, for \(t\geq t_{0}\), we have
where \(R_{1}(t), R_{2}(t), -A(t), B(t), C(t), D(t), F(t), G(t), H(t)\) are non-negative, continuous and bounded functions defined on \([t_{0}, +\infty)\);
and \(0< H(t)\leq H_{0}<1\), \(\gamma^{*}=\gamma_{1}+\frac{C_{0}+D_{0}}{1-H_{0}} \gamma _{2}\). The constant \(\mu^{\ast}> 0\) is defined as
Specially, if \(R_{1}(t)=R_{2}(t)\equiv0\), (2.4) degenerates into following form:
Proof
First, if \(\tau=0\), from the second formula of (2.1), we have
Substituting (2.6) into the first formula of (2.1) shows that (2.1) degenerates into a differential inequality
where
Noting the condition (2.3), it is can be proved that
The combination of this formula and (2.6) shows that (2.4) holds with
It is obvious that \(\mu^{\ast}>0\) under the assumption (2.3).
In the following we assume that \(\tau>0\). For any given \(t\in[t_{0}, +\infty)\), we define function \(E(\mu)\) on \([0,\frac{1}{\tau}\ln\frac {1}{H_{0}})\) by
From (2.7) we can see that
Therefore, there exists a unique \(\mu\in(0,\frac{1}{\tau}\ln\frac {1}{H_{0}})\) such that
which defines an implicit function \(\mu(t)\) for \(t\geq t_{0}\). It is obvious that \(\mu^{\ast}\geq0\). Now we prove that \(\mu^{\ast}> 0\).
In fact, if this is not true. Let \(\widetilde{H}_{0}\) satisfying \(0< H_{0}< \widetilde{H}_{0} <1\) and let \(0< \varepsilon_{1} <\min\{\frac{\sigma}{2}, -\frac{1}{\tau} \ln\widetilde {H}_{0}, \frac{1}{\tau}\ln (\frac{\sigma}{2Q}+1)\}\), where
and \(B_{0}=B^{[t_{0},+\infty)}\).
Then there would exist \(t^{\ast}\geq t_{0}\) such that \(\hat{\mu}:=\mu (t^{*})<\varepsilon_{1}\) and
Substituting (2.3) into (2.9) gives
which is a contradiction.
In order to verify (2.4), we first show that, for any \(\varepsilon>0\),
In fact, when \(t=t_{0}\), (2.10) is evident by using (2.2).
If we suppose (2.10) is not true for \(t>t_{0}\), then there would exist some \(\varepsilon_{0}>0\) and \(\varsigma>t_{0}\) such that when \(t< \varsigma\)
while when \(t=\varsigma\), at least one of the following two equalities is true:
and
However, from the second formula of (2.1), when \(\varsigma-\tau \geq t_{0}\), we have
and, when \(\varsigma-\tau< t_{0}\), we have
Hence (2.14) and (2.15) show that (2.13) is not true. Therefore we need only consider the case that (2.12) holds and we shall obtain a contradiction. Set
Then \(z(t)>0\) for \(t<\varsigma\) and \(z(\varsigma)=0\) and \(z'(\varsigma)\leq0\). Hence from the first formula of (2.1) we have
If \(\varsigma-\tau\geq t_{0}\), it follows from (2.11), (2.12), (2.16) and the definition of \(\gamma^{*}\) that
From the definition of the function \(\mu(t)\), we have
Therefore, it is easy to see that
which substituting into (2.17) and noting the condition (2.3), gives
If \(\varsigma-\tau< t_{0}\), it follows from (2.16) that
Thus we also can get (2.18) by simple derivation. This is in contradiction with our result \(w'(\varsigma)\leq0\). Therefore the inequality (2.10) must hold for any given \(\varepsilon>0\). Since \(\varepsilon>0\) is arbitrary, we let \(\varepsilon\rightarrow0\) and obtain (2.4), which completes the proof of Theorem 2.1. □
Remark 2.2
If \(R_{1}(t)=R_{2}(t)=C(t)=F(t)\equiv0\), we can obtain expression (2.5). Particularly, if we further assume that \(C(t)=F(t)\equiv0\), then (2.5) degenerates into a conclusion which is present in [11].
3 Dissipativity of two classes of nonlinear neutral functional differential equations
In this section, we consider several simple applications of Theorem 2.1 to the study of dissipativity for two classes of nonlinear neutral functional differential equations.
Let X be a real or complex, finite-dimensional or infinite-dimensional Hilbert space with the inner product \(\langle\cdot ,\cdot\rangle\) and the corresponding norm \(\Vert \cdot \Vert \).
3.1 Dissipativity of nonlinear neutral delay integro-differential equations (NNDIDEs)
Consider the IVPs in NNDIDEs as follows:
where Ï„ are positive constant, the functions \(f:[t_{0},+\infty) \times X \times X \times X \times X \rightarrow X\), \(g:[t_{0},+\infty) \times[t_{0}-\tau,+\infty) \times X \rightarrow X\), \(\phi:[t_{0}-\tau,t_{0}] \rightarrow X\) are assumed to be continuous functions and for any \(t\geq t_{0}, y, u, v, w\in X\), f and g satisfy the conditions:
and
where \(-\alpha, \beta, \gamma_{1}, \gamma_{2}, \omega, \lambda, L_{y}, L_{u}, L_{v}, L_{w}\) are all non-negative real constants.
Theorem 3.1
Let problem (3.1) satisfy (3.2) and (3.3) with \(L_{v} \omega<1\), and initial value function \(\phi(t)\) satisfy
Let \(y(t)\) be the solution of (3.1). Assume that there exists a constant \(\sigma>0\) such that
Then
(1) for any \(t \geq t_{0}\) we have
where \(\phi_{0} =\max_{t_{0}-\tau\leq t \leq t_{0}}\|\phi(t)\|^{2}\), \({\mu }^{*}>0\) is given as follows:
(2) the system is dissipative, for any \(\varepsilon>0\) the open ball
is an absorbing set.
Proof
Let
and
Then when \(t\geq t_{0}\), from (3.2) we have
Noting (3.3) one obtains
which gives
Substituting (3.9) into (3.8), we have
On the other hand, from the second formula of (3.2) and (3.9) we have
Therefore, combining of (3.10) and (3.11), for \(t\geq t_{0}\) we have
Let
From Theorem 2.1 we can obtain (3.5) immediately. This completes the proof of Theorem 3.1. □
3.2 Dissipativity of nonlinear neutral Volterra integro-differential equations (NNVIDEs)
Consider the IVPs in NNVIDEs as follows:
where \(\tau>0\) is constant, Ï• is a continuous function, and the functions \(f:[t_{0},+\infty)\times X \times X \times X \rightarrow X\) and \(K:[t_{0},+\infty)\times[t_{0}-\tau,+\infty)\times X \times X \rightarrow X\) satisfy the conditions for any \(t\geq t_{0}, y, u, v\in X\):
where \(D=\{(t,s):t\in[t_{0},+\infty),s\in[t-\tau,t]\}\), \(\gamma, \beta_{1}, \beta_{2}, \mu, L_{y}, L_{u}, L_{v}\) are non-negative real constants and \(\alpha \leq0\).
Theorem 3.2
Assume that (3.13) satisfies (3.14) with \(2\beta_{2} \tau^{2} L_{v}L_{k}^{2}<1\), and initial value function \(\phi(t)\) satisfies
Assume there exists a constant \(\sigma>0\) such that
Let \(y(t)\) be the solution of (3.13). Then
(1) for any \(t \geq t_{0}\) we have
where \(\phi_{0} =\sup_{ t_{0}-\tau \leq \xi \leq t_{0}} \Vert \phi(\xi) \Vert ^{2}\), \({\mu}^{*}>0\) is defined as
(2) the system is dissipative, for any \(\varepsilon>0\) the open ball
is an absorbing set.
Proof
Let
and
From (3.14) we can obtain
and
and
It can be summarized from (3.16) and (3.17) that
We denote
Then from Theorem 2.1 we can complete the proof of Theorem 3.2. □
Remark 3.3
From a numerical point of view, it is important to study the potential of numerical methods in preserving the qualitative behavior of the analytical solutions. Therefore, the results of Theorem 3.1 and Theorem 3.2 presented in this paper, provide the theoretical foundation for analyzing the dissipativity of the numerical methods when they are applied to the underlying systems.
