Summary This paper aims to investigate the input‐to‐state exponents (IS‐e) and the related input‐to‐state stability (ISS) for delayed discrete‐time systems (DDSs). By using the method of variation of parameters and introducing notions of uniform and weak uniform M‐matrix, the estimates for 3 kinds of IS‐eare derived for time‐varying DDSs. The exponential ISS conditions with parts suitable for infinite delays are thus established, by which the difference from the time‐invariant case is shown. The exponential stability of a time‐varying DDS with zero external input cannot guarantee its ISS. Moreover, based on the IS‐eestimates for DDSs, the exponential ISS under events criteria for DDSs with impulsive effects are obtained. The results are then applied in 1 example to test synchronization in the sense of ISS for a delayed discrete‐time network, where the impulsive control is designed to stabilize such an asynchronous network to the synchronization.
