Stability analysis of linear fractional differential system with multiple time delays. (English) Zbl 1185.34115
Summary: We study the stability of a system of linear fractional differential equations with time delays. By using the Laplace transform, we introduce a characteristic equation for the above system with multiple time delays. We discover that if all roots of the characteristic equation have negative parts, then the equilibrium of the above linear system with fractional order is Lyapunov globally asymptotical stable if the equilibrium exist.
We present some examples.
