Exponential Ordering for Nonautonomous Neutral Functional Differential Equations

Abstract

We study monotone skew-product semiflows generated by families of nonautonomous neutral functional differential equations with infinite delay and stable D-operator, when the expo- nential ordering is considered. Under adequate hypotheses of stability for the order on bounded sets, we show that the omega-limit sets are copies of the base to explain the long-term behavior of the trajectories. The application to the study of the amount of material within the compartments of a neutral compartmental system with infinite delay shows the improvement with respect to the standard ordering.
