Abstract

In this paper, the global exponential stability and periodicity are investigated for impulsive neural network models with Lipschitz continuous activation functions and generalized piecewise constant delay. The sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of periodic solutions of the model are established by applying fixed point theorem and the successive approximations method. By constructing suitable differential inequalities with generalized piecewise constant delay, some sufficient conditions for the global exponential stability of the model are obtained. The methods, which does not make use of Lyapunov functional, is simple and valid for the periodicity and stability analysis of impulsive neural network models with variable and/or deviating arguments. The results extend some previous results. Typical numerical examples with simulations are utilized to illustrate the validity and improvement in less conservatism of the theoretical results. This paper ends with a brief conclusion.
