This paper mainly focuses on the pth ( p ≥ 2)-moment input-to-state stability (ISS) of neutral stochastic delay differential equations (NSDDEs) with Lévy noise and Markovian switching. By using the generalized integral inequality and the Lyapunov function methodology, the ISS, integral input-to-state stability (iISS), and stochastic input-to-state stability (SISS) of such equations are obtained. When the input signal is a constant signal and a zero signal, the pth ( p ≥ 2)-moment ISS reduces to the pth ( p ≥ 2)-moment practical exponential stability and the pth ( p ≥ 2)-moment exponential stability, respectively. Finally, an example of the mass–spring–damping (MSD) model under the stochastic perturbation is given to verify the validity of the results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of this paper is devoted to studying the implicit–explicit (IMEX) one-leg methods for stiff delay differential equations (DDEs) which can be split into the stiff and nonstiff parts. IMEX one-leg methods are composed of implicit one-leg methods for the stiff part and explicit one-leg methods for the nonstiff part. We prove that if the IMEX one-leg methods is consistent of order 2 for the ordinary differential equations, and the implicit one-leg method is A-stable, then the IMEX one-leg methods for stiff DDEs are stable and convergent with order 2. Some numerical examples are given to verify the validity of the obtained theoretical results and the effectiveness of the presented methods. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

A five-dimensional delay differential system is proposed to describe oscillatory behaviour in microbial continuous culture. Stability and Hopf bifurcation are discussed, including the changing regularity of the bifurcation value. An explicit algorithm for determining the direction of Hopf bifurcation and the stability of periodic solution is derived, using the theory of normal form and centre manifold. Finally, some numerical simulations are performed to illustrate the analytical results found. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article is concerned with the stability of θ-methods for linear delay-integro-differential systems. The linear θ-methods for the modified linear delay-integro-differential systems are established. It is shown that the linear θ-methods are GP-stable if θ∈[1/2, 1]. Finally, some numerical experiments are given to demonstrate the conclusions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The use of two constructed polynomial spline functions to approximate the solution of a system of first-order delay differential equations is described. The first spline function is a polynomial with an undetermined constant coefficient in the last term. The other has a polynomial spline form. The error analysis and stability of the second function are theoretically investigated and a test example is given. A comparison of the two forms is carried out to illustrate the pertinent features of the proposed techniques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
