1. INTRODUCTION
WE CONSIDER a system of functional differential equations with finite or infinite delay
x’(t) = F(f, x,), x E R” (1)
and obtain some Liapunov-type theorems on the uniform boundedness (UB) and uniform ultimate boundedness (UUB) of solutions of (1). This work generalizes some very important results in the literature. For reference and history, see Burton [ 1, p. 25 11, Burton and Zhang [2], Hale [3, p. 1391, Hering [4], and Yoshizawa [5, p. 2021. During the last 40 years investigators have shown that if solutions of (1) are UB and UUB, and if F(t, 4) is o-periodic in t and solutions of (1) are continuous on initial conditions, then (1) has an w-periodic solution (see [6,7]). Here are some effective results concerning the boundedness of solutions of (1).
Let f: [0, +oo) x R” -+ R” be continuous and consider the system of ordinary differential equations
(0) x’(t) = f(t, x).
THEOREM A. Suppose that there exists a continuous function V: R+ x R” + R+, positive constants U and M such that
(i) W,(M) 5 W, x) 5 K(M), (ii) k&,0, X) 5 -K(lxl) + M, W,(u) > M,
(iii) W,(r)-++coasr-++c0. Then solutions of (0) are UB and UUB.
This theorem was discovered early, is easy to prove, and there are many important examples. Investigators have constructed many functionals V for (1) having analogs to (i)-(iii) although serious problems were encountered. An early result in extending theorem A to equation (1) with finite delay may be found in the book of Yoshizawa [5, p. 2021.
THEOREM B [5]. Suppose that there exists a continuous functional I/: R+ x C --t R+, and a con- stant U > 0 such that
w,(MO)I) 5 V(f, 4) 5 w,dwal) + w,(ll4ll), V(i,(C @J) 5 0 for l4(O)l 2 u,
W,(r) - W,(r) -+ +a, as r -+ +oo.
Then solutions of (1) are UB.

Burton and Zhang [2] considered the boundedness of solutions of (1) both for finite and infinite delay. Let R- = (-co, 01, R+ = [0, +oo) and R = (-0, +oo). Define
G = (g: R- + [l, +a): g is continuous, nonincreasing and g(0) = 1, g(u) -+ +03 as u --t -00)
and
C, = (4: R- + R”: q5 is continuous with 141, < +oo]
where 141, = sup]$(s)l/g(s). Then (C,,l* le) is a Banach space. SSO
THEOREM C [2]. Let V: R+ x C, -+ R+ be continuous and locally Lipschitz in 4 E C, . Suppose that there exists a: R+ + R+ with @ E L’(R+ ) and Q’(t) 5 0 such that
5

Then solutions of (1) are g-UB and g-UUB. A recent work by Hering [4] generalizes theorem B to (1) with infinite delay. Define an order in
G by g < go if and only if g, go E G, g(s) I g’(s) for s I 0 and lim [sup g(s)/g’(s - N)] = 0. N++m ss0
The following definition is also needed
63 = t (Y: [-h, +oo) + R+: 01 is continuous and there exist positive constants j3 and L

such that p 5 (Y(S) d.s I 1 for all t E R+ . t 1
THEOREM D [4]. Suppose that there exists a continuous functional V: R+ x C, + R+, functions 17 E 03, go E G with g 5 go and positive constants K, M, U and y such that
~hfJ(m 5 vet, 4) 5 Kd#4O)l) + w3(141g4, V(i)@9 4) 5 -rlwK4(l~(O)l) + M,

pW,(r) - FM L 0 with g % go, solutions of (1) are g-UB, and whenever
Wl(r) -
Then, whenever PW, - LM > 0 with g < g”, solutions of (1) are g-UUB.
Notice that the differential inequalities used in theorems C and D are quite different. In this paper, we generalize theorems B-D when a(t) = 1 using a unified approach and provide an important step in extending theorem A to (1). We follow Burton and Zhang [2] dividing the main results into two parts. The first part is for finite delay. Results in this section not only
![Page 3: Boundedness in functional differential equations](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022080309/575008c01a28ab1148b76550/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Functional differential equations 1513
develop essential ideas for studying systems with infinite delays but also provide much weaker conditions for boundedness in finite delay systems. The second part deals with systems with infinite delays. The result in this section is a unification of theorems C and D.
2. EQUATIONS WITH BOUNDED DELAY
For x E R”, 1x1 denotes the Euclidean norm of x. For a given h > 0, C will be the space of continuous functions $: [-h, 0] + R” with the supremum norm ]]&]] = sup[&s)l: -h I s 5 0). If x is a continuous function of u defined on -h 5 u < A, A > 0, and if t is a fixed number satisfying 0 I t < A, then x, denotes the restriction of x to the interval [t - h, t] so that x, is an element of C defined by x,(19) = x(t + 0) for B E [-h, 01. We consider (1) with finite delay
x’(t) = F@,x(s), t - h 5 s 5 t), XER” (2)
where x’(t) is the right-hand derivative of x at t. It is assumed that F: R+ x C + R” is continuous so that a solution will exist for each (to, 4) E R+ x C. We denote by x(t,, 4) a solution of (1) with initial function 4 E C where x,,(t,, 4) = 4. The value of x(tO, 4) at t will be x(t) = x(t, t,, 4). We suppose that F takes a bounded set of R+ x C into a bounded set of R” so that the bounded solutions of (1) are continuable to t = + co.
Let V be a continuous functional defined on R+ x C. The upper right-hand derivative of I/ along solutions of (1) is defined by
v($, 4) = :$n+ SUP{ V(t + 6, X,+&r 4)) - vt, 4)1/d.
Definition 1. Solutions of (2) are uniformly bounded (UB) if for each B, > 0 there exists B, > 0 such that [t,, E R+, 11411 I B,, t L to] imply (x(i, to, 4)1 5 B,.
Definition 2. Solutions of (2) are uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB) for bound B if for each B, > 0 there exists T > 0 such that [t,, E R+, (1411 I B,, t 2 to + T] imply Ix(t, to, 4)1 I B.
Definition 3. W: Rf -+ R + is called a wedge if W is continuous and strictly increasing with W(0) = 0. Throughout this paper W, F (j = 1,2, . . .) will denote the wedges.
Letting W be a wedge and (Y E 63, we define

In particular,

THEOREM 1. Suppose that there exists a continuous functional V: R+ x C + R+, a function CY E 03, and positive constants K, M, U with p W(U) - ML > 0, where /3 and L are given in the definition of &I such that
(I) wI(l4Kol) 5 WY 4) 5 w2(l4(o)l + lW4)l,,,,) + W3(ll4lh (11) Q;,@, 4) 5 -aWWldWl) + M,
(III) W,(r) - W,(r) > W,(U + ML + Mh) + ML for r 2 K, W,(r) -+ +m as r --f +a. Then solutions of (1) are UB and UUB.

Proof. Let B, > 0, r#~ E C with 11411 i B, and x(t) = x(t, to, 4). Define V(t) = V(t, xt) for t 2 I,. Then
V(GJ 5 W,(& + W(y&)) + W,(&) for some y > 0.
Without loss of generality, we assume that B, > K + U + M(h + L) and W(yB,) 2 U + ML + Mh, where L is defined in the definition of CR. We shall show that
V(f) 5 W,(B, + W(yB,)) + W,(B,) + M(L + h) =: V,
for all t L to. We prove (3) by induction. Define
(3)
z, = [to + n(L + h), t, + (n + l)(L + h)] =-: [t,, T,] forn =0,1,2 ,....
It is clear that V(t) I V, on I,. We assume that V(t) 5 V, on Z,, and show that (3) holds on Z n+l. In fact, on Z,+i we have either:
(A) V(t) I maxi V(s): s E ZJ for all t E I,+ 1 ; or (B) V(r,+,) > V(s) for some r,+i E Z,,, and all s E [f,, T,+J.
If (A) holds, then V(t) I V, on Z,+i by the assumption. Now suppose that (B) holds. We first claim that there exists s0 E [rn+i - L, T,+J
s E [G+~ - L G+J, then

a contradiction. Thus, such s,, exists. Moreover,
.i
Tflt1 V(r,+,) 5 Qs, - h) - a(s) W(lx(s)l) ds + M(L + h).

Since V(r,+,) > V(s, - h), we have
5 So
T”n+l I WXSJ Ia = 4s)Wlx(4) ds 5
.I a(s) W((x(s)l) ds I M(L + h).
so-h so-h
Thus,
J’(r) s V(r,+r) 5 J’(s,) + ML 5 w,(~x(~,)~ + ~+‘(x,~)~,~,~,) + w,(k,~~) + ML
for all t E [t,, r,+r]. Let Ix(s*)I = (IxJ. Then
W,(lx(s*)l) I W,(U + ML + MA) + W,(/x(s*)j) + ML.
This yields that ]]xsOl] 5 K by condition (III). Hence,
V(t,+,) c: W,(U + ML + Mh) + W,(K) + ML 5 W,(B, + W(yB,)) + W,(B,) + ML.
Consequently, we have V(t) s V, on Z,,,, . By induction, we conclude that V(t) I V, for all t 1 t, and Ix(t)\ I W;‘(V,) for t 2 t,. Thus, solutions of (1) are UB.
We now show that solutions of (1) are UUB. Let B, > 0 and define Bz > 0 of uniform boundedness. Let 4 E C and ll~(] 5 B,, then (x(t, to, $)I I B, for t L t,,. We assume that B, > K, then there exists a constant YZ with 0 < q < p W(U) - ML such that
W,(r) - W,(r) > W,(U + ML + Mh + 17) + q + ML (4)

for r E [K, II,]. We consider I, again. On each Z,, we have either (C) Ix(t)1 5 K for all t E Z, or
(D) k(y,)l = maxlk(s)I : s E Ll > K- If (C) holds, then by the uniform boundedness there exists B > 0 such that Ix(t)1 5 B for t 2 T, where B = B(K) is a function of K. Next we assume that (D) holds and define
V, = V/(6,) = maxi V(s): s E I,),
V It+1 = V(d,+,) = max(V(s): s E I,,,).
We claim that V a+1 5 V, - q with q given in (4). By the method of contradiction, suppose that
v,,, > K - rl* (5)
We first show that there exists a s0 E [a,,, - L, 6,+J with Ix(.q,)I 5 U. In fact, if Ix(s)I > U

If 4+, - L E Z,,+l, then
V(&+,) 5 V(&+1 - L) - @W(U) + ML) < V(&+1)9
a contradiction. If a,+, - L E I,, then
V(&+,) 5 V(k+, - L) - (p W(U) - ML) = T/(6,+, - L) - ty - (/3 W(U) - ML - Yf)
I V(6,) - q - @W(U) - ML - q) < V(6,) - Y/
which contradicts (5). Thus, such s, exists. Moreover,
s

This yields that

Suppose that (D) holds on Ij for j = 1,2, . . . , N. Then for tEINwehave V(t)I~~_,-rlII/,_,-2~7... I V, - Nq < 0. This implies that there exists an integer k, 0 I k < N, such that (C) holds on Zk and Ix(t)/ I B for all t 2 Tk 2 TN = t,, + (N + l)(L + h) =: t, + T. Thus, solutions of (1) are UUB and the proof of theorem 1 is complete.

Then solutions of (1) are UB and UUB.

For each (to, 4) E R x C,, there exists an o > 0 and a continuous function x: (-03, to + a) -, R” such that x(t) satisfies equation (12) on [to, to + a) with xto = 4. x is called a solution of (12) and it is denoted by x(t,, 6). The value of x(t,, 4) at t is denoted by x(t) = x(t, to, 4).
For each (to, q5) E R x C,, x(t,, C#J) is defined on [to, +m) unless there exists to < p < +co such that lim s;pIx, (t, to, $)I = +a.

where Q = j!!- (Y*(S) ds and (Y* is defined in a. Then solutions of (12) are g-UB and g-UUB.
Proof. Let B, > 0, r#~ E C, with 141, I B, and x(t) = x(t, to, 4). Define V(t) = V(t, xi) for t L to. Since 11. IJB h as a fading memory with respect to 1. Ig, it follows that ll+lla 5 141, I B, . Thus,
V(t,) I W,(B, + H(B,)) + W,(B,) =: v,.
There exists U*, 0 < U* < U, such that W(U*) > M. Let /I = U - U*. Without loss of generality, we may assume that U < K. For E = U* and B, > 0, there exists h > 0 such that

If (A*) holds, then V(u) I V. + Mh for all u L to + h. Now suppose (B*) holds. Multiply (II*) by a(t, s) and add a,(t, s) V(s) on both sides of (II*) to obtain

Since V(s) < V(t) for all to I s < t, it follows that Ix(t)1 I U*. Thus,

We claim that sup Ix(s)1 I K. Suppose there exists s* E [to, t] such that t05S5T

Then by (16) with o = t - to, we have

Wr(lx(s*)]) i V(s*) I I’(t) I W,(U + MQ) + W3(lx(s*)l)
which contradicts (III*). Thus, ]x(s*)l 5 K and

Then, Ix(t)1 5 B, for all t 2 to. This proves the g-uniform boundedness of solutions of (12). Next we show that solutions of (12) are g-uniformly ultimately bounded. Let B, > 0 and
define B, > 0 of g-uniform boundedness. Let 4 E C, and 141g 5 B, ; then ]x(t, to, $J)] I B,

Repeating the argument for g-uniform boundedness with to replaced by t, and V. replaced by V&, we conclude that there exists a B = B(K) > 0 such that Ix(t)1 I B for all t 2 t,. Now we assume (D*) holds and define
V, = V/(6,) = max (V(s): s E I,),
V n+l = V(S,+,) = max(V(s): s E Z,+r).
We claim that V n+l I V, - q with q given in (19). By the method of contradiction, suppose that

This implies that there exists an integer k, 0 5 k I N, such that (C*) holds on Ik and Ix(t)\ s B for all t 2 t, 1 tN = t,, + Nh. Thus, solutions of (12) are g-UUB and the proof of theorem 2 is complete.
