Abstract

Sufficient conditions are obtained for the global asymptotic stability of the positive equilibrium of a regulated logistic growth with a delay in the state feedback of the control modelled by dn(t)dt=rn(t)[1(a1n(t)+a2n(tτ)K)cu(t)]dn(t)dt=au(t)+bn(tτ) where u denotes an indirect control variable, r,a2,τ,a,b,c(0,) and a1[0,).
