Input-to-state stability of impulsive reaction–diffusion neural networks with infinite distributed delays

Abstract

In this paper, we focus on the global existence–uniqueness and input-to-state stability of the mild solution of impulsive reaction–diffusion neural networks with infinite distributed delays. First, the model of the impulsive reaction–diffusion neural networks with infinite distributed delays is reformulated in terms of an abstract impulsive functional differential equation in Hilbert space and the local existence–uniqueness of the mild solution on impulsive time interval is proven by the Picard sequence and semigroup theory. Then, the diffusion–dependent conditions for the global existence–uniqueness and input-to-state stability are established by the vector Lyapunov function and M-matrix where the infinite distributed delays are handled by a novel vector inequality. It shows that the ISS properties can be retained for the destabilizing impulses if there are no too short intervals between the impulses. Finally, three numerical examples verify the effectiveness of the theoretical results and that the reaction–diffusion benefits the input-to-state stability of the neural-network system.
