A new criterion to global exponential periodicity for discrete-time BAM neural network with infinite delays

The discrete-time bidirectional associative memory neural network with periodic coefficients and infinite delays is studied. And not by employing the continuation theorem of coincidence degree theory as other literatures, but by constructing suitable Liapunov function, using fixed point theorem and some analysis techniques, a sufficient criterion is obtained which ensures the existence and global exponential stability of periodic solution for the type of discrete-time BAM neural network. The obtained result is less restrictive to the BAM neural networks than previously known criteria. Furthermore, it call be applied to the BAM neural network which signal transfer functions are neither bounded nor differentiable. In addition, all example and its numerical simulation are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained result. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
