Delay-dependent stability of high order Runge–Kutta methods

This paper is concerned with the study of the delay-dependent stability of Runge–Kutta methods for delay differential equations. First, a new sufficient and necessary condition is given for the asymptotic stability of analytical solution. Then, based on this condition, we establish a relationship between τ(0)-stability and the boundary locus of the stability region of numerical methods for ordinary differential equations. Consequently, a class of high order Runge–Kutta methods are proved to be τ(0)-stable. In particular, the τ(0)-stability of the Radau IIA methods is proved.
