Lecture 6

20 Maio 2020, 14:30 • Maria Teresa Faria da Paz Pereira

Global attractivity: study of global attractivity and stability for some selected examples:

1. A monotone scalar semi-dynamical system with one discrete delay and negative feedback: presentation by a student.
2. A general autonomous scalar DDE with a weaker negative feedback condition; application to a logistic delay equation.
3. Wright's equation (statement with the 3/2-condition on a parameter a, and proof only for the case a<=1); some considerations about the general proof and historical notes about Wright's conjecture, whose proof was finally published in 2018.

This lecture took place on Tuesday, May 26, from 17h to 19h.
