Regenerative potential of connective tissue grafts vs. platelet-rich fibrin preparations in periodontal therapy: a comparative review

1.   Introduction

Hopfield neural networks have recently sparked significant interest, due to their versatile applications in various domains including associative memory [1], image restoration [2], and pattern recognition [3]. In neural networks, time delays often arise due to the restricted switching speed of amplifiers [4]. Additionally, when examining long-term dynamic behavior, nonautonomous characteristics become apparent, with system coefficients evolving over time [5]. Moreover, in biological nervous systems, synaptic transmission introduces stochastic perturbations, adding an element of randomness [6]. As we know that time delays, nonautonomous behavior, and stochastic perturbations can induce oscillations and instability in neural networks. Hence, it becomes imperative to investigate the stability of stochastic delay Hopfield neural networks (SDHNNs) with variable coefficients.

The Lyapunov technique stands out as a powerful approach for examining the stability of SDHNNs. Wang et al. [7,8] and Chen et al. [9] employed the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional to investigate the (global) asymptotic stability of SHNNs characterized by constant coefficients and bounded delay, respectively. Zhou and Wan [10] and Hu et al. [11] utilized the Lyapunov technique and some analysis techniques to investigate the stability of SHNNs with constant coefficients and bounded delay, respectively. Liu and Deng [12] used the vector Lyapunov function to investigate the stability of SHNNs with bounded variable coefficients and bounded delay. It is important to note that establishing a suitable Lyapunov function or functional can pose significant challenges, especially when dealing with infinite delay nonautonomous stochastic systems.

Meanwhile, the fixed point technique presents itself as another potent tool for stability analysis, offering the advantage of not necessitating the construction of a Lyapunov function or functional. Luo used this technique to consider the stability of several stochastic delay systems in earlier research [13,14,15]. More recently, Chen et al. [16] and Song et al. [17] explored the stability of SDNNs characterized by constant coefficients and bounded variable coefficients using the fixed point technique, yielding intriguing results. However, the fixed point technique has a limitation in the stability analysis of stochastic systems, stemming from the inappropriate application of the Hölder inequality.

Furthermore, integral or differential inequalities are also powerful techniques for stability analysis. Hou et al. [18], and Zhao and Wu [19] used the differential inequalities to consider stability of NNs, Wan and Sun [20], Sun and Cao [21], as well as Li and Deng [22] harnessed variation parameters and integral inequalities to explore the exponential stability of various SDHNNs with constant coefficients. In a similar vein, Ruan et al. [23] and Zhang et al. [24] utilized integral and differential inequalities to probe the $p$th moment exponential stability of SDHNNs characterized by bounded variable coefficients.

It is worth highlighting that the literature mentioned previously exclusively focused on investigating the exponential stability of SDHNNs, without addressing other decay modes. Generalized exponential stability was introduced in [25] for cellular neural networks without stochastic perturbations, and is a more general concept of stability which contains the usual exponential stability, polynomial stability, and logarithmical stability. It provides some new insights into the stability of dynamic systems. Motivated by the above discussion, we are prompted to explore the $p$th moment generalized exponential stability of SHNNs characterized by variable coefficients and infinite delay.

It is important to note that the models presented in [20,21,25,26,27,28] are specific instances of system (1.1). System (1.1) incorporates several complex factors, including unbounded time-varying coefficients and infinite delay functions. As a result, discussing the stability and its decay rate for (1.1) becomes more complicated and challenging.

The contributions of this paper can be summarized as follows: (ⅰ) A new concept of stability is utilized for SDHNNs, namely the generalized exponential stability in $p$th moment. (ⅱ) We establish a set of multidimensional integral inequalities that encompass unbounded variable coefficients and infinite delay, which extends the works in [23]. (ⅲ) Leveraging these derived inequalities, we delve into the $p$th moment generalized exponential stability of SDHNNs with variable coefficients, and the work in [10,11,20,21,26,27] are improved and extended.

The structure of the paper is as follows: Section 2 covers preliminaries and provides a model description. In Section 3, we present the primary inequalities along with their corresponding proofs. Section 4 is dedicated to the application of these derived inequalities in assessing the $p$th moment generalized exponential stability of SDHNNs with variable coefficients. In Section 5, we present three simulation examples that effectively illustrate the practical applicability of the main results. Finally, Section 6 concludes our paper.

2.   Preliminaries and model description

Let $\mathbb{N}_n = \{1, 2, ..., n\}$. $|\cdot|$ is the norm of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. For any sets $A$ and $B$, $A-B: = \{x|x\in A, \ x\notin B\}$. For two matrixes $C, D\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times m}$, $C\geq D$, $C\leq D$, and $C < D$ mean that every pair of corresponding parameters of $C$ and $D$ satisfy inequalities $\geq$, $\leq$, and $<$, respectively. $E^T$ and $E^{-1}$ represent the transpose and inverse of the matrix $E$, respectively. The space of bounded continuous $\mathbb{R}^n$-valued functions is denoted by $\mathcal{BC}: = \mathcal{BC}((-\infty, t_0];\mathbb{R}^n)$, for $\varphi\in\mathcal{BC}$, and its norm is given by

$(\Omega, \mathscr{F}, \mathcal \{\mathscr{F}_t\}_{t\geq t_0}, \mathbb{P})$ stands for the complete probability space with a right continuous normal filtration $\{\mathscr{F}_t\}_{t\geq t_0}$ and $\mathscr{F}_{t_0}$ contains all $\mathbb{P}$-null sets. For $p > 0$, let $\mathcal{L}^p_{\mathscr{F}_t}((-\infty, t_0];\mathbb{R}^n): = \mathcal{L}^p_{\mathscr{F}_t}$ be the space of $\{\mathscr{F}_t\}$-measurable stochastic processes $\phi = \{\phi(\theta):\theta\in(-\infty, t_0]\}$ which take value in $\mathcal{BC}$ satisfying

where $\mathbb{E}$ represents the expectation operator.

In system (1.1), $z_i(t)$ represents the $i$th neural state at time $t$; $c_i(t)$ is the self-feedback connection weight at time $t$; $a_{ij}(t)$ and $b_{ij}(t)$ denote the connection weight at time $t$ of the $j$th unit on the $i$th unit; $f_j$ and $g_j$ represent the activation functions; $\sigma_{ij}(t, z_j(t), z_j(t-\delta_{ij}(t)))$ stands for the stochastic effect, and $\delta_{ij}(t)\geq 0$ denotes the delay function. Moreover, $\{\omega_j(t)\}_{j\in \mathbb{N}_n}$ is a set of Wiener processes mutually independent on the space $(\Omega, \mathscr{F}, \mathcal \{\mathscr{F}_t\}_{t\geq 0}, \mathbb{P})$; $z_i(t, \phi)$ $(i\in\mathbb{N}_n)$ represents the solution of (1.1) with an initial condition $\phi = (\phi_1, \phi_2, ..., \phi_n)\in\mathcal{L}^p_{\mathscr{F}_t}$, sometimes written as $z_i(t)$ for short. Now, we introduce the definition of generalized exponentially stable in $p$th ($p\geq2$) moment.

Definition 2.1. System (1.1) is $p$th ($p\geq2$) moment generalized exponentially stable, if for any $\phi\in \mathcal{L}^p_{\mathscr{F}_t}$, there are $\kappa > 0$ and $c(u)\geq0$ such that $\lim\limits_{t\rightarrow +\infty}\int^{t}_{t_0}c(u)du\rightarrow +\infty$ and

where $-\int^{t}_{t_0}c(u)du$ is the general decay rate.

Remark 2.1. Lu et al. [25] proposed the generalized exponential stability for neural networks without stochastic perturbations, we extend it to the SDHNNs.

Remark 2.2. We replace $\int^{t}_{t_0}c(u)du$ by $\lambda (t-t_0)$, $\lambda \ln(t-t_0+1),$ and $\lambda\ln(\ln(t-t_0+e))$ ($\lambda > 0$), respectively. Then (1.1) is exponentially, polynomially, and logarithmically stable in $p$th moment, respectively.

Lemma 2.1. [29] For a square matrix $\Lambda\geq0$, if $\rho(\Lambda) < 1$, then $(I-\Lambda)^{-1}\geq0$, where $\rho(\cdot)$ is the spectral radius, and $I$ and $0$ are the identity and zero matrices, respectively.

3.   Main inequalities

Consider the following inequalities

where $y_i(t)$, $\gamma_i(t)$, and $\eta_{ij}(t)$ are non-negative functions and $\alpha_{ij}\geq0$, $i, j\in \mathbb{N}_n$.

Lemma 3.1. Regrading system (3.1), let the following hypotheses hold:

$(\mathbf{H.1})$ For $i, j\in \mathbb{N}_n$, there exist $\gamma(t)$ and $\gamma_i > 0$ such that

where $\gamma^*(t) = \gamma(t)$, for $t\geq t_0$, and $\gamma^*(t) = 0$, for $t < t_0$.

$(\mathbf{H.2})$ $\rho\big(\alpha\big) < 1,$ where $\alpha = (\alpha_{ij})_{n\times n}$.

Then, there is a $\kappa > 0$ such that

Proof. For $t\geq t_0$, multiply $e^{\lambda\int^t_{t_0}\gamma(u)du}$ on both sides of (3.1), and one has

where $\lambda\in(0, \min\limits_{i\in \mathbb{N}_n}\{\gamma_i\})$ is a sufficiently small constant which will be explained later. Define

$i\in \mathbb{N}_n$ and $t\geq t_0$. Obviously,

Further, it follows from $(\mathbf{H.1})$ that

By (3.2)–(3.4), we have

By the definition of $H_i(t)$, we get

i.e.,

where $H(t) = (H_1(t), ..., H_n(t))^T$, $\psi(t_0) = (\psi_1(t_0), ..., \psi_n(t_0))^T$, $\Gamma = diag(\gamma_1, ..., \gamma_n)$, and $\alpha e^{\lambda\eta} = (\alpha_{ij}e^{\lambda\eta_{ij}})_{n\times n}$. Since $\rho(\alpha) < 1$ and $\alpha\geq0$, then there is a small enough $\lambda > 0$ such that

From Lemma 2.1, we get

Denote

From (3.5), we have

Therefore, for $i\in \mathbb{N}_n$, we get

and then there exists a $\kappa > 0$ such that

This completes the proof. □

Consider the following differential inequalities

where $D^+$ is the Dini-derivative, $y_i(t)$, $\gamma_i(t)$, and $\eta_{ij}(t)$ are non-negative functions, and $\alpha_{ij}\geq0$, $i, j\in \mathbb{N}_n$.

Lemma 3.2. For system (3.6), under hypotheses $(\mathbf{H.1})$ and $(\mathbf{H.2})$, there are $\kappa > 0$ and $\lambda > 0$ such that

Proof. For $t > t_0$, multiply $e^{\int^{t}_{t_0}\gamma_i(u)du}$ $(i\in \mathbb{N}_n)$ on both sides of (3.6) and perform the integration from $t_0$ to $t$. We have

The proof is deduced from Lemma 3.1. □

Remark 3.1. For a given matrix $M = (m_{ij})_{n\times n}$, we have $\rho(M)\leq\|M\|$, where $\|\cdot\|$ is an arbitrary norm, and then we can obtain some conditions for generalized exponential stability. In addition, for any nonsingular matrix $S$, define the responding norm by $\|M\|_S = \|S^{-1}MS\|$. Let $S = diag\{\xi_1, \xi_2, ..., \xi_n\}$, then for the row, column, and the Frobenius norm, the following conditions imply $\|M\|_S < 1$:

(1) $\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{n}\bigg(\frac{\xi_i}{\xi_j}|m_{ij}|\bigg) < 1$ for $i\in \mathbb{N}_n$;

(2) $\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{n}\bigg(\frac{\xi_i}{\xi_j}|m_{ij}|\bigg) < 1$ for $i\in \mathbb{N}_n$;

(3) $\sum\limits_{i = 1}^{n}\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{n}\bigg(\frac{\xi_i}{\xi_j}|m_{ij}|\bigg)^2 < 1.$

Remark 3.2. Ruan et al. [23] investigated the special case of inequalities (3.6), i.e., $\gamma_i(t) = \gamma_i$ and $\eta_{ij}(t) = \eta_{ij}$. They obtained that system (3.6) is exponentially stable provided

From Remark 3.1, we know condition $\rho(\alpha) < 1$ $(\alpha = \big(\frac{\alpha_{ij}}{\gamma_i}\big)_{n\times n})$ is weaker than (3.7). Moreover, we discuss the generalized exponential stability which contains the normal exponential stability. This means that our result improves and extends the result in [23].

4.   Main result

This section considers the $p$th moment generalized exponential stability of (1.1) by applying Lemma 3.1. To obtain the $p$th moment generalized exponential stability, we need the following conditions.

$(\mathbf{C.1})$ For $i, j\in \mathbb{N}_n$, there are $c(t)$ and $c_i > 0$ such that

where $c^*(t) = c(t)$, for $t\geq t_0$, and $c(t) = 0$, for $t < t_0$.

$(\mathbf{C.2})$ The mappings $f_j$ and $g_j$ satisfy $f_j(0) = g_j(0) = 0$ and the Lipchitz condition with Lipchitz constants $F_j > 0$ and $G_j > 0$ such that

$(\mathbf{C.3})$ The mapping $\sigma_{ij}$ satisfies $\sigma_{ij}(t, 0, 0)\equiv0$ and $\forall u_1, u_2, v_1, v_2\in\mathbb{R}$, and there are $\mu_{ij}(t)\geq0$ and $\nu_{ij}(t)\geq0$ such that

$(\mathbf{C.4})$ For $i, j\in \mathbb{N}_n$,

$(\mathbf{C.5})$

where $M = diag(m_1, m_2, ..., m_n)$, $m_i = \frac{(p-1)\sum^{n}\limits_{j = 1}\rho^{(1)}_{ij}}{p}+\frac{(p-1)(p-2)\sum^{n}\limits_{j = 1}\rho^{(2)}_{ij}}{2p}$, $\Omega^{(k)} = (\rho_{ij}^{(k)})_{n\times n }$, $k\in \mathbb{N}_2$, and $p\geq2$.

Conditions $(\mathbf{C.1})$–$(\mathbf{C.4})$ guarantee the existence and uniqueness of (1.1) [30].

Theorem 4.1. Under conditions $(\mathbf{C.1})$–$(\mathbf{C.5})$, system (1.1) is $p$th moment generalized exponentially stable with decay rate $-\lambda\int^t_{t_0}c(s)ds$, $\lambda > 0$.

Proof. By the Itô formula, one can obtain

So we get

Since $\mathbb{E}\bigg[\int^t_{t_0}p\sigma_{ij}(s, z_j(s), z_j(s-\delta_{ij}(s)))z^{p-1}_i(s)dw_j(s)\bigg] = 0$ for $i\in \mathbb{N}_n$ and $t\geq t_0$, we have

i.e.,

For $i\in\mathbb{N}_n$ and $t\geq t_0$, using the variation parameter approach, we get

For $i\in \mathbb{N}_n$ and $t\geq t_0$, conditions $(\mathbf{C.2})$–$(\mathbf{C.4})$ and the Young inequality yield

Then, all of the hypotheses of Lemma 3.1 are satisfied. So there exists $\kappa > 0$ and $\lambda > 0$ such that

This completes the proof. □

Remark 4.1. Huang et al.[27] and Sun and Cao [21] considered the special case of (1.1), i.e., $a_{ij}(t)\equiv a_{ij}$, $b_{ij}(t)\equiv b_{ij}$, $c_i(t)\equiv c_i$, $\mu_{ij}(t)\equiv \mu_{j}$, $\nu_{ij}(t)\equiv \nu_{j}$, and $\delta_{ij}(t)\equiv\delta_{j}(t)$ is a bounded delay function. [27] showed that system (1.1) is $p$th moment exponentially stable provided that there are positive constants $\xi_i, ..., \xi_n$ such that $N_1 > N_2 > 0$, where

and

The above conditions imply that for each $i\in\mathbb{N}_n$,

Then

From Remark 3.1, we know condition (4.1) implies

and this means that this paper improves and enhances the results in [27]. Similarly, our results also improve and enhance the results in [10,11,26]. Besides, the results in [21] required the following conditions to guarantee the $p$th moment exponential stability, i.e.,

where

From the matrix spectral analysis [29], we can get

The above discussion shows that our results improve and extend the works in [21]. Similarly, our results also improve and broaden the results in [20].

Remark 4.2. When $c_i(t)\equiv c_i$, $a_{ij}(t)\equiv a_{ij}$, $b_{ij}(t)\equiv b_{ij}$, $\delta_{ij}(t)\equiv\delta_{j}$, and $\sigma_{ij}(t, z_j(t), z_j(t-\delta_{ij}(t)))\equiv0$, then (1.1) turns to be the following HNNs

or

where $z(t) = (z_1(t), ..., z_n(t))^T$, $C = diag(c_1, ..., c_n) > 0$, $A = (a_{ij})_{n\times n}$, $B = (b_{ij})_{n\times n}$, $f(x(t)) = (f_1(z_1(t)), ..., f_n(z_n(t)))^T$, and $g(z_{\delta}(t)) = (g_1(z_1(t-\delta_1)), ..., g_n(z_n(t-\delta_n)))^T$. This model was discussed in [16,28]. For (4.3), using our approach can get the subsequent corollary.

Corollary 4.1. Under condition $(\mathbf{C.2})$, if $\rho(C^{-1}D) < 1$, then (4.3) is exponentially stable, where $D = (|a_{ij}F_j|+|b_{ij}G_j|)_{n\times n}$.

Note that Lai and Zhang [28] (Theorem 4.1) and Chen et al. [16] (Corollary 5.2) required the following conditions

and

to ensure the exponential stability, respectively. From Remark 3.1, we know that Corollary 4.1 is weaker than Theorem 4.1 in [28] and Corollary 5.2 in [16]. This improves and extends the results in [16,28].

5.   Examples

Now, we give three examples to illustrate the effectiveness of the main result.

Example 5.1. Consider the following SDHNNs:

where $c_1(t) = 10(t+1)$, $c_2(t) = 20(t+2)$, $a_{11}(t) = b_{11}(t) = 0.5(t+1)$, $a_{12}(t) = b_{12}(t) = t+1$, $a_{21}(t) = b_{21}(t) = 2(t+2)$, $a_{22}(t) = b_{22}(t) = 2.5(t+2)$, $f_1(u) = f_2(u) = arctanu$, $g_1(u) = g_2(u) = 0.5(|u+1|-|u-1|)$, $\sigma_{11}(t, u, v) = \frac{\sqrt{2(t+1)}(u-v)}{2}$, $\sigma_{12}(t, u, v) = 2\sqrt{(t+1)}(u-v)$, $\sigma_{21}(t, u, v) = \sqrt{(t+1)}(u-v)$, $\sigma_{22}(t, u, v) = \frac{\sqrt{10(t+2)}(u-v)}{2}$, $\delta_{11}(t) = \delta_{21}(t) = \delta_{12}(t) = \delta_{22}(t) = 0.5t$, and $\phi(0) = (40, 20)$.

Choose $c(t) = \frac{1}{t+1}$, and then $\sup\limits_{t\geq0}\bigg\{\int^t_{0.5t}\frac{1}{s+1}ds\bigg\} = \ln2$. We can find $F_1 = F_2 = G_1 = G_2 = 1$, $\rho^{(1)}_{11} = 0.1$, $\rho^{(1)}_{12} = 0.2$, $\rho^{(1)}_{21} = 0.2$, $\rho^{(1)}_{22} = 0.25$, $\rho^{(2)}_{11} = 0.2$, $\rho^{(2)}_{12} = 1.6$, $\rho^{(2)}_{21} = 0.2$, and $\rho^{(2)}_{22} = 0.5$. Then

Then $(\mathbf{C.1})$–$(\mathbf{C.5})$ are satisfied $(p = 2)$. So (5.1) is generalized exponentially stable in mean square with a decay rate $-\lambda\int^t_0\frac{1}{1+s}ds = -\lambda ln(1+t)$, $\lambda > 0$ (see Figure 1).

Remark 5.1. It is noteworthy that all variable coefficients and delay functions in Example 5.1 are unbounded, and then the results in [12,23] are not applicable in this example.

Example 5.2. Consider the following SDHNNs:

where $c_1(t) = 20(1-sint)$, $c_2(t) = 10(1-sint)$, $a_{11}(t) = b_{11}(t) = 2(1-sint)$, $a_{12}(t) = b_{12}(t) = 4(1-sint)$, $a_{21}(t) = b_{21}(t) = 0.5(1-sint)$, $a_{22}(t) = b_{22}(t) = 1.5(1-sint)$, $f_1(u) = f_2(u) = arctanu$, $g_1(u) = g_2(u) = 0.5(|u+1|-|u-1|)$, $\sigma_{11}(t, u, v) = \sqrt{2(1-sint)}(u-v)$, $\sigma_{12}(t, u, v) = \sqrt{6(1-sint)}(u-v)$, $\sigma_{21}(t, u, v) = \frac{\sqrt{(1-sint)}(u-v)}{2}$, $\sigma_{22}(t, u, v) = \frac{\sqrt{(1-sint)}(u-v)}{2}$, $\delta_{11}(t) = \delta_{21}(t) = \delta_{12}(t) = \delta_{22}(t) = \pi|\cos t|$, and $\phi(t) = (40, 20)$ for $t\in[-\pi, 0]$.

Choose $c(t) = 1-\sin t$, and then $\sup\limits_{t\geq0}\int^t_{t-\pi|\cos t|}\big(1-\sin s\big)^*ds = \pi+2$. We can find $F_1 = F_2 = G_1 = G_2 = 1$, $\rho^{(1)}_{11} = 0.2$, $\rho^{(1)}_{12} = 0.4$, $\rho^{(1)}_{21} = 0.1$, $\rho^{(1)}_{22} = 0.3$, $\rho^{(2)}_{11} = 0.4$, $\rho^{(2)}_{12} = 1.2$, $\rho^{(2)}_{21} = 0.1$, and $\rho^{(2)}_{22} = 0.1$. Then

Then $(\mathbf{C.1})$–$(\mathbf{C.5})$ are satisfied $(p = 2)$. So (5.2) is generalized exponentially stable in mean square with a decay rate $-\lambda\int^t_0 (1-sins)ds = -\lambda(t-cost+1)$, $\lambda > 0$ (see Figure 2).

Remark 5.2. It should be pointed out that in Example 5.2 the variable coefficients $c_i(t) = 0$ for $t = \frac{\pi}{2}+2k\pi$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$. This means that the results in [12,23] cannot solve this case.

To compare to some known results, we consider the following SDHNNs which are the special case of [12,16,20,21,22,23].

Example 5.3.

where $c_1 = 2$, $c_2 = 4$, $a_{11} = 0.5$, $a_{12} = 1$, $b_{11} = 0.25$, $b_{12} = 0.5$, $a_{21} = \frac{1}{3}$, $a_{22} = \frac{2}{3}$, $b_{21} = \frac{1}{3}$, $b_{22} = \frac{2}{3}$, $f_1(u) = f_2(u) = arctanu$, $g_1(u) = g_2(u) = 0.5(|u+1|-|u-1|)$, $\sigma_{1}(u) = 0.5u$, $\sigma_{2}(u) = 0.5u$, $\delta_{11}(t) = \delta_{21}(t) = \delta_{12}(t) = \delta_{22}(t) = 1$, and $\phi(t) = (40, 20)$ for $t\in[-1, 0]$.

Choose $c(t) = 1$, and then $\sup\limits_{t\geq0}\int^t_{t-1}\big(1)^*ds = 1$. We can find $F_1 = F_2 = G_1 = G_2 = 1$, $\rho^{(1)}_{11} = \frac{3}{8}$, $\rho^{(1)}_{12} = \frac{3}{4}$, $\rho^{(1)}_{21} = \frac{1}{6}$, $\rho^{(1)}_{22} = \frac{1}{3}$, $\rho^{(2)}_{11} = \frac{1}{8}$, $\rho^{(2)}_{12} = \rho^{(2)}_{21} = 0$, and $\rho^{(2)}_{22} = \frac{1}{16}$. Then

Then $(\mathbf{C.1})$–$(\mathbf{C.5})$ are satisfied $(p = 2)$. So (5.3) is exponentially stable in mean square (see Figure 3).

Remark 5.3. It is noteworthy that in Example 5.3,

which makes the result in [20,21,22] invalid. In addition,

which makes the result in [16] not applicable in this example. Moreover

which makes the results in [12,23] inapplicable in this example.

6.   Conclusions
