A stability property of A-stable collocation-based Runge-Kutta methods for neutral delay differential equations

We consider a linear homogeneous system of neutral delay differential equations with a constant delay whose zero solution is asymptotically stable independent of the value of the delay, and discuss the stability of collocation-based Runge-Kutta methods for the system. We show that an A-stable method preserves the asymptotic stability of the analytical solutions of the system whenever a constant step-size of a special form is used.
