On the stability region of scalar delay-differential equations. (English) Zbl 0663.34059
The paper deals with the uniform stability of the zero solution to the functional differential equation $\dot x(t)=F(t,x\sb t)+G(t,x(t)),$ where $\vert G(t,x)\vert \le a(t)\vert x\vert$ and -b(t)[f]$\le F(t,f)\le b(t)[-f]$, $[f]=\sup \{f(t): -q\le t\le 0\}$. The stability conditions are given in terms of the “comparison” equation $\dot x(t)=a(t)x(t)- b(t)x(t-r(t)),$ $0\le r(t)\le q$.
