This paper is concerned with the local asymptotic stability problem for a competitive Lotka–Volterra system with time-varying delays. By constructing the novel augmented Lyapunov–Krasovskii functionals and using the Wirtinger integral inequality, some alternative stability criteria are obtained by means of linear matrix inequalities. In particular, our constructed functionals contain some cross terms related to four different time delays. The proposed stability conditions in this paper are less conservative as compared with the most existing ones due to using some advanced techniques. Finally, a numerical example illustrates the effectiveness and improvement of the obtained results.
