摘要

This paper aims to investigate the asymptotic stability of linear multistep (LM) methods for linear differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) with multiple delays. Based on the argument principle, we first establish the delay-dependent stability criteria of analytic solutions; then, we propose some practically checkable conditions for weak delay-dependent stability of numerical solutions derived by implicit LM methods. Lagrange interpolations are used to compute the delayed terms. Several numerical examples are given to illustrate the theoretical results.
