The delayed Cucker-Smale model with short range communication weights

Various flocking results have been established for the delayed Cucker-Smale model, especially in the long range communication case. However, the short range communication case is more realistic due to the limited communication ability. In this case, the non-flocking behavior can be frequently observed in numerical simulations. Furthermore, it has potential applications in many practical situations, such as the opinion disagreement in society, fish flock breaking and so on. Therefore, we firstly consider the non-flocking behavior of the delayed Cucker\begin{document}$ - $\end{document}Smale model. Based on a key inequality of position variance, a simple sufficient condition of the initial data to the non-flocking behavior is established. Then, for general communication weights we obtain a flocking result, which also depends upon the initial data in the short range communication case. Finally, with no restriction on the initial data we further establish other large time behavior of classical solutions.
