Global asymptotic and exponential stability of equilibria for the following class of functional differential equations with distributed delay is investigated

$ x'(t)=-f(x(t))+\int_{0}^{\tau}h(a)g(x(t-a))da.$

We make our analysis by introducing a new approach, combining a Lyapunov functional and monotone semiflow theory. The relevance of our results is illustrated by studying the well-known integro-differential Nicholson's blowflies and Mackey-Glass equations, where some delay independent stability conditions are provided. Furthermore, new results related to exponential stability region of the positive equilibrium for these both models are established.

Keywords: Monotone semi-flow, global asymptotic and exponential stability, fluctuation method.
