Abstract
The aim of this paper is to investigate the exponential stability of a nonlinear differential delay equation a(t) = f(t,x(t),x(t-tau)). Intr oduce the corresponding differential equation (without delay) y(t)=f(t ,y(t),y(t)) and assume it is exponentially stable. It will be shown in this paper that the differential delay equation will remain exponenti ally stable provided the time lag tau is small enough.
