Comparison principle for difference equations with variable-time impulses Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • In this paper, a class of difference equations with variable-time impulses is considered. By applying comparison principle, we shall show that difference equations with variable-time impulse can be reduced to the corresponding difference equations with fixed-time impulses under well-selected conditions. Meanwhile, the fixed-time impulsive systems can be regarded as the comparison system of the difference equations with variable-time impulses. Furthermore, we use a series of sufficient criteria to illustrate the same stability properties between variable-time impulsive difference equations and the fixed-time ones. We then establish several sufficient conditions guaranteeing the global exponential stability of variable-time impulsive difference equations by comparison principle. As an application, global exponential stability of discrete-time neural networks with variable-time impulses is discussed. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.
