Abstract

For the system with a distributed delay X@?(t)+@?k=1m@!"h"""k"("t")^t[d"sR"k(t,s)]X(s)=0 sufficient conditions for positivity of the fundamental matrix are obtained. In the case when the fundamental matrix is positive, comparison results and sufficient positivity conditions for solutions are established.
