The study of recurrent neural networks with piecewise constant transition or control functions has attracted much attention recently because they can be used to simulate many physical phenomena. A recurrent and discontinuous two-state dynamical system involving a nonnegative bifurcation parameter is studied. By elementary but novel arguments, we are able to give a complete analysis on its asymptotic behavior when the parameter varies from 0 to . It is hoped that our analysis will provide motivation for further results on large-scale recurrent McCulloch-Pitts-type neural networks and piecewise continuous discrete-time dynamical systems.
