ABSTRACT
The main objects of study in this paper are the impulsive autonomous nonlinear differential equations with random impulses. The sufficient conditions for several types of stability of non-zero solutions of such equations are found.
Keywords: Impulsive Equations, Random Impulsive Moments, Stability
I. INTRODUCTION
The impulsive differential equations can be classified according to several basic symptoms:
Order of differential equation: first order (see D. Bainov and all [1]), second order (see X. Li [2]), n-th order (see F.
Chen and X. Wen [3]), etc.;
Form of the right hand side of the equation: linear (see M. Akhmet and all [4]), nonlinear (see S. Mohamad and all [5]), autonomous (see M. Akhmet [6]), nonautonomous (see S. Tang and all [7]) etc.;
Type of the impulsive functions: linear (see D. Bainov and P. Simeonov [8], Chapter 1, Paragraph 2), nonlinear (see Z. He and W. Ge [9]), scalar functions (see D. Bainov and A. Dishliev [10]), non-scalar functions (see D.
Cheng and J. Yan [11]), random (see A. Samojlenko and O. Stanzhytskyi [12]), etc.;
Method of determining the impulsive moments: fixed (see X. Fu and X. Li [13]), variable (see D. Bainov and A.
Dishliev [14]), random (see K. Dishlieva [15]), etc.
In this paper, we study the impulsive systems of differential equations, which are: (i) first order, (ii) nonlinear, (iii) nonautonomous, (iv) with variable impulsive functions and (v) random moments of impulsive effects.
Conditionally, we can split the theory of stability of the solutions of impulsive equations in two main parts:
Classical theory of stability of these equations. There are investigated many types of stability in respect to the perturbations on: (i) the initial condition, (ii) the right hand side, (iii) the parameter, (iv) the integral manifolds, etc.
Here, we mention only a few monographs dedicated to the above types of stability: A. Samoilenko and N.
Perestyuk [16], I. Stamova [17], V. Lakshmikantham and all [18] and D. Bainov and P. Simeonov [19];
Specific theory of stability, where the perturbations are associated with the changes in elements which are specific to this type of equations. As an example we shall point the effects related to: (i) the impulsive moments, (ii) the
impulsive hypersurfaces, (iii) the switching sets, (iv) the barrier curves etc. (see A. Dishliev and all [20], A.
Dishliev and D. Bainov [21]).
Here, we investigate classical stability on the initial value condition of the solutions of impulsive systems of differential equations with random moments of impulsive effects.

This problem will be named the degenerated of the basic problem. The reason for this name is that the problem (4), (5) is obtained from problem (1), (2), (3), assuming that the impulsive functions Ii

We introduced the following conditions:

Lemma 1. Let the Conditions H1-H4 be valid.
Then for every initial point
t x0, 0
RD and any choice of impulsive moments
1, 2,...
, the solution of problem (1), (2), (3) exists and is unique for tt0.Proof. Let the initial point
t x0, 0
RD and the impulsive moments satisfy the inequalities t0 1 2,.... For t0 t 1, according to (6), we have x t t x
; ,0 0,
X t t x
; ,0 0
. Then using Condition H2, we find that the solution of the main problem exists and is unique in the interval t0 t 1. By Condition H3, we derive

etc. In this way we conclude that the solution of main problem exists and is unique in every one of the intervals

Elaydi [23] (Lipschitz stability of the solutions of differential equations without impulsive effects) and A. Dishliev and D. Bainov [24] (Lipschitz stability of the solutions of impulsive equations).
The main objective of this study is to find the sufficient conditions ensuring different types of stability of the solution of problem (1), (2), (3) at the random impulsive moments.

Proof. Let the initial point

1, 2,...
, t0 1 2..., be an arbitrary set of impulsive moments. We suppose that x is a point of D , which satisfies the inequality 0* x*0x0 , in where constant satisfies Definition 3, part (ii). We introduce the notations:

IV. APLICATION
As an illustrative example we shall look at the development of isolated population subjected to external pulse effects. Usually, these impacts are expressed in the withdrawal or (more rarely) in the addition of certain quantities of biomass to the population. The duration of such external interventions is negligible compared with the total duration of the research process, therefore it can be considered that they are carried out instantaneously in the form of impulses. The next initial problem appears as an adequate mathematical model of such processes
, idN r
N K N t t
dt K ; (12)
i 0
i i
iN t N t p N t , i1, 2,...; (13)
0 0N N , (14)
where:
- NN t
is the biomass amount at the moment t0;- t t1, 2,... are the moments at which the impulsive effects are carried out. There is 0 t1 t2 ... and lim i
i t
; - K const 0 is the capacity of the environment;
- r const 0 is the reproductive potential of the population;
- p p1, 2,... are the coefficients reflecting the volume of the relevant withdrawals. It is fulfilled 0pi 1, i1, 2,...;
- N is the biomass amount at the initial moment 0 t0, where KN0K and 0 const1.
We shall show that the described impulsive logistic model of an isolated population satisfies the conditions of Theorem 2. The validity of Condition H1 is obvious. For each value of the initial point N0
0,K
D, the solution N t
;0,N0
of degenerated problem without impulses (12), (14) is defined and unique for every t0. Furthermore, we have
0

This means that Condition H2 is satisfied by the model. From (13), we can see that

. Since N

For each two initial points

The inequality above shows that the solutions of the degenerate problem (12), (14) are locally uniformly Lipschitz stable (with constant L 12 ).
For every two points N N', ''D, we have
