The stability analysis of recurrent neural networks (RNNs) with multiple equilibria has received extensive interest since it is a prerequisite for successful applications of RNNs. With the increasing theoretical results on this topic, it is desirable to review the results for a systematical understanding of the state of the art. This article provides an overview of the stability results of RNNs with multiple equilibria including complete stability and multistability. First, preliminaries on the complete stability and multistability analysis of RNNs are introduced. Second, the complete stability results of RNNs are summarized. Third, the multistability results of various RNNs are reviewed in detail. Finally, future directions in these interesting topics are suggested.
