Abstract: In this paper, a delayed multispecies ecological competition-predator system with Holling-III functional response is studied. By using the continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory and constructing suitable Lyapunov functionals, some sufficient conditions are derived for the existence, uniqueness and global asymptotic stability of positive periodic solutions to the system.

Abstract: This paper considers the robust control problem for a class of uncertain time-varying delayed neural networks, in which the activation function may be a discontinuous function. A robust decentralized adaptive sliding mode controller is proposed to guarantee the asymptotically stability of the system. The proposed controller, which does not dependent on the time delay, ensures the occurrence of the sliding manifold even when the system is undergoing parameter uncertainties and nonlinear input. Two numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed controller. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]

Abstract: We consider a four-neuron ring with self-feedback and delays. By analyzing the associated characteristic equation, linear stability is investigated and Hopf bifurcations are demonstrated, as well as the stability and direction of the Hopf bifurcation are determined by employing the normal form method and the center manifold reduction. Numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the results. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
