Abstract

This paper deals with an initial value problem of a neutral functional-differential equation with variable time delay. The effect of the neutral term on the existence and uniqueness of solutions is investigated. A comparison theorem is given and is applied to a functional Riccati equation. The asymptotic behaviour of solutions of a linear perturbation of the generalized pantograph equation is studied.
