Abstract: The present work investigates recurrent neural systems incorporating generalized piecewise constant delay, with particular emphasis on establishing periodic behaviors and verifying their exponential convergence on a global scale. The existence of periodic solutions is established via Mawhin's coincidence degree in combination with sharp a priori estimates, while uniqueness and exponential attractivity are derived through a Lyapunov functional approach supported by differential inequalities adapted to the delay structure. The obtained criteria are concise, verifiable, and applicable in practice. Representative computational experiments are provided to substantiate the analytical findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
