Abstract

This article focuses on the hybrid effects of memristor characteristics, time delay, and biochemical parameters on neural networks. First, we propose a novel neuron system with memristor and time delays in which the memristor is characterized by a smooth continuous cubic function. Second, the existence of equilibria of this type of neuron system is examined in the parameter space. Sufficient conditions that ensure the stability of equilibria and occurrence of pitchfork bifurcation are given for the memristor-based neuron system without delay. Third, some novel criteria of the addressed neuron system are constructed for guaranteeing the delay-dependent and delay-independent stability. The specific conditions are provided for Hopf bifurcations, and the properties of Hopf bifurcation are ascertained using the center manifold reduction and the normal form theory. Moreover, there exists a phenomenon of bistability for the delayed memristor-based neuron system having three equilibria. Finally, the effectiveness of the theoretical results is demonstrated by numerical examples.
