Abstract :
By employing Lyapunov functions and the theory of differential inequalities in the context of a suitable minimal class of functions, sufficient conditions are given for stability of functional differential systems. It is shown that the dominant diagonal property of a matrix provides a suitable mechanism to resolve "time-lag vs. stability" problem.
