Abstract:
In this paper, without assuming strict positivity of amplifier functions, boundedness of activation functions, or symmetry of connection matrix, the dynamical behaviors of delayed Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with nonnegative equilibrium are studied. Based on the theory of nonlinear complementary problem
(NCP), a sufficient condition is derived guaranteeing existence and uniqueness of the nonnegative equilibrium in the NCP sense. Moreover, this condition also guarantees the -global asymptotic stability of the nonnegative equilibrium in the first orthant. The result is compared with some previous results and a numerical example is presented to indicate the viability of our
theoretical results.
