Oscillatory properties of systems of first order linear delay differential inequalities

K. Gopalsamy

Vol. 128 (1987), No. 2, 299–305
Abstract

Sufficient conditions are obtained for the nonexistence of eventually positive bounded solutions of the system of delay differential inequalities

dxi(t)   ∑n
dt  +    aijxj(t− τij) ≤ 0; i = 1,2,...,n
j=1

and for the nonexistence of eventually negative bounded solutions of

dxi(t)  ∑n
----- +    aijxj(t − τij) ≥ 0; i = 1,2,...,n.
dt   j=1

As a corollary to the above we obtain sufficient conditions for all bounded solutions of

        ∑n
dxi(t) +    aijxj(t− τij) = 0; i = 1,2,...,n
dt    j=1

to be oscillatory.
