Abstract
In this work stability results for systems described by coupled Retarded Functional Differential Equations (RFDEs) and Functional Difference Equations (FDEs) are presented. The results are based on the observation that the composite system can be regarded as the feedback interconnection of a subsystem described by RFDEs and a subsystem described by FDEs. Recent Small-Gain results and Lyapunov-like characterizations of the Weighted Input-to-Output Stability property for systems described by RFDEs and FDEs are employed. The stability results provided in this work can be used to study stability for systems described by neutral functional differential equations and systems described by hyperbolic partial differential equations.
