1. Introduction
It is well known that inequality technique is an important tool for investigating dynamical behavior of differential equation. The significance of differential and integral inequalities in the qualitative investigation of various classes of functional equations has been fully illustrated during the last 40 years 1–3. Various inequalities have been established such as the delay integral inequality in4, the differential inequalities in5,6, the impulsive differential inequalities in7–10, Halanay inequalities in11–13, and generalized Halanay inequalities in14–17. By using the technique of inequality, the invariant and attracting sets for differential systems have been studied by many authors9,18–21.
However, the inequalities mentioned above are ineffective for studying the invariant and attracting sets of impulsive nonautonomous neutral neural networks with time-varying delays. On the basis of this, this article is devoted to the discussion of this problem.
2. Preliminaries
Throughout the paper, En means n-dimensional unit matrix, Rthe set of real numbers, N
the set of positive integers, andN Δ {1,2, . . . , n}.A ≥ BA > B means that each pair of corresponding elements ofAandBsatisfies the inequality “≥> ”. Especially,Ais called a nonnegative matrix ifA≥0.
CX, Y denotes the space of continuous mappings from the topological spaceXto the topological spaceY. In particular, letCΔC−τ,0,Rn , whereτ >0 is a constant.
P Ca, b,Rn denotes the space of piecewise continuous functionsψs : a, b → Rn
with at most countable discontinuous points and at this points ψs are right continuous. Especially, letP CΔP C−τ,0,Rn . Furthermore, putP Ca, b ,Rn

H {ht : R → R | ht is a positive integrable function and satisfies supa≤t<btt−τhs dsσ <∞and limt→ ∞tahs ds∞}.
For x ∈ Rn, A ∈ Rn×n,ϕ ∈ Cor ϕ ∈ P C, we define x |x

For anyϕ∈P C1, we define the following norm:

For anM-matrixDdefined in23, we denote
ΩMD z∈Rn |Dz >0, z >0. 2.3
It is a cone without conical surface inRn. We call it an “M-cone”.
3. Singular Impulsive Delay Differential Inequality
For convenience, we introduce the following conditions.
C1 Let ther-dimensional diagonal matrixKdiag{k1, . . . , kr}satisfy
ki >0, i∈S⊂ N∗Δ{1, . . . , r}, ki0, i∈S∗ΔN∗−S. 3.1
C2 LetU−PQ be anM-matrix, whereQ qij r×r ≥0 andP pij r×r satisfies
Theorem 3.1. Assume the conditions C1 and C2 hold. Let L L1, . . . , Lr and ut u1t , . . . , urt T be a solution of the following singular delay differential inequality with the initial conditionsut ∈P Ca−τ, a,Rr :
KDut ≤ht P ut Q ut τL, t∈a, b , 3.3
whereτ >0, a < b≤∞, anduit ∈Ca, b ,R, i∈S,uit ∈P Ca, b ,R , i∈S∗,ht ∈ H. Then
ut ≤dze−λtahsds−PQ −1L, t∈a, b , 3.4
provided that the initial conditions satisfy
ut ≤dze−λtahsds−PQ −1L, t∈a−τ, a, 3.5
whered≥0,z z1, . . . , zr T ∈ΩMU and the positive numberλsatisfies the following inequality:
λKPQeλσz <0, t∈a, b . 3.6
Proof. By the conditionsC2 and the definition ofM-matrix, there is a constant vectorz z1, . . . , zr Tsuch thatPQ z <0,−PQ −1exists and−PQ −1≥0.
By using continuity, we obtain that there must exist a positive constantλsatisfying the inequality3.6, that is,

pijqijeλσ
zj<−λkizi, i∈ N∗. 3.7
Denote by
vt v1t , . . . , vrt T
ut PQ −1L, t∈a−τ, b . 3.8
It follows from3.3 and3.5 that
KDvt ≤ht P ut Q ut τL
≤ht P vt Q vt τ, t∈a, b ,
vt ≤dze−λtahsds, t∈a−τ, a.
3.9
In the following, we will prove that for any positive constantε,
vit ≤dε zie−λ

Let
℘i∈ N∗| vit > wit for some t∈a, b ,

If inequality3.10 is not true, then℘is a nonempty set and there must exist some integer
m∈℘such thatθmmini∈℘{θi} ∈a, b .

This is a contradiction. Thus the inequality3.10 holds. Therefore, lettingε → 0 in3.10 , we have
vt ut PQ −1L≤dze−λtahsds, t∈a, b . 3.18
The proof is complete.
Remark 3.2. In order to overcome the difficulty thatut in3.3 may be discontinuous, we introduce the notation uit τ sup−τ≤s<0{uits } which is different from the notation
uit τsup−τ≤s≤0{uits }in7. However, whenuit is continuous int, we have
uit τ sup

So we can get7, Lemma 1when we chooseKEr,SN∗,ht ≡1 inTheorem 3.1.
Remark 3.3. Suppose thatL L1, . . . , Lr T 0 andht ≡1 inTheorem 3.1, then we can get 10, Theorem 3.1.
4. Applications
The singular impulsive delay differential inequality obtained in Section 3 can be widely applied to study the dynamics of impulsive neutral differential equations. To illustrate the theory, we consider the following nonautonomous impulsive neutral neural networks with delays

The initial condition for4.1 is given by
xt0s
ϕs ∈P C1, t0∈R, −τ ≤s≤0. 4.2
We always assume that for anyϕ∈P C1,4.1 has at least one solution throught 0, ϕ , denoted byxt, t0, ϕ orxtt0, ϕ simplyxt orxtif no confusion should occur .
Definition 4.1. The setS⊂P C1is called a positive invariant set of4.1, if for any initial value
ϕ∈S, we have the solutionxtt0, ϕ ∈Sfort≥t0.
Definition 4.2. The setS⊂P C1is called a global attracting set of4.1 , if for any initial value

where distφ, S infψ∈Sdistφ, ψ , distφ, ψ sups∈−τ,0|φs −ψs |,forφ∈P C1.
Throughout this section, we suppose the following.

Theorem 4.3. Assume that H1 –H7 hold. Then S {φ ∈ P C1 | φτ ≤ eμ1} is a global attracting set of 4.1.
Proof. Denote ˙xt yt . Let sgn· be the sign function. For x x1, . . . , xn T, define Sgnx diag{sgnx1 , . . . ,sgnxn }.

then from4.12 –4.14 andH6 , we have

By the conditionsH6 and the definition ofM-matrix, we may choose a vectorz∗ z1, . . . , z2n T ∈ΩMD such that
Dz∗−PQ z∗>0. 4.16
By using continuity, we obtain that there must be a positive constantλsatisfying the inequality4.10 . Letz∗x z1, . . . , zn T and z∗y zn1, . . . , z2n T, thenz∗ z∗x, z∗y T. Since

This implies that the conclusion of the theorem holds.
By usingTheorem 4.3withd 0, we can obtain a positive invariant set of4.1, and the proof is similar to that ofTheorem 4.3.
Theorem 4.4. Assume thatH1 –H7 withIk Enhold. ThenS {φ ∈P C1 |φτ ≤ 1}is a positive invariant set and also a global attracting set of 4.1.
Remark 4.5. Suppose thatcij ≡0, i, j∈ NinH5 , andht ≡1, then we can get Theorems 1 and 2 in9.
Remark 4.6. IfIkt, xt− x ∈ Rn then 4.1 becomes the nonautonomous neutral neural
networks without impulses, we can get Theorem 4.1 in22.
