In this note, I show that it is possible to use elementary mathematics, instead of the machinery of Lambert function, Laplace Transform, or numerics, to derive the instability condition, $k \tau = \pi/2$, and the critical damping condition,…

We write the relations that characterize the simpliest timed automaton, the inertial delay buffer, in two versions: the non-deterministic and the deterministic one, by making use of the derivatives of the R->{0,1} functions.

The differential equations involving two discrete delays are helpful in modeling two different processes in one model. We provide the stability and bifurcation analysis in the fractional order delay differential equation $D^\alpha x(t)=a…

In this paper, we investigate the well-posedness and asymptotic behavior of difference equations of the form $x(t) = A x(t - \tau(t))$, $t \geq 0$, where the unknown function $x$ takes values in $\mathbb R^d$ for some positive integer $d$,…

Consider the first-order linear differential equation with several retarded arguments $$ x^{\prime}(t)+\sum\limits_{i=1}^{m}p_{i}(t)x(\tau_{i}(t))=0,\;\;\;t\geq t_{0}, $$ where the functions $p_{i},\tau_{i}\in…

At a composition far above the percolation threshold, the resistance of a composite sample increases with time due to Joule heating as a constant current of sufficiently large value is passed through the sample. If the current is less than…

$Q$-systems and $T$-systems are systems of integrable difference equations that have recently attracted much attention, and have wide applications in representation theory and statistical mechanics. We show that certain $\tau$-functions,…

In this paper, we revisit the classical linear turning point problem for the second order differential equation $\epsilon^2 x'' +\mu(t)x=0$ with $\mu(0)=0,\,\mu'(0)\ne 0$ for $0<\epsilon\ll 1$. Written as a first order system, $t=0$…

This paper is concerned with the stability problem for the planar linear switched system $\dot x(t)=u(t)A_1x(t)+(1-u(t))A_2x(t)$, where the real matrices $A_1,A_2\in \R^{2\times 2}$ are Hurwitz and $u(\cdot) [0,\infty[\to\{0,1\}$ is a…

Consider the controlled system $dx/dt = Ax + \alpha(t)Bu$ where the pair $(A,B)$ is stabilizable and $\alpha(t)$ takes values in $[0,1]$ and is persistently exciting, i.e., there exist two positive constants $\mu,T$ such that, for every…

It is already well-understood that many delay differential equations with only a single constant delay exhibit a change in stability according to the value of the delay in relation to a critical delay value. Finding a formula for the…

Let $d \ge 2$. In this paper, we study weak solutions for the following type of stochastic differential equation \[ dX_{t}=dS_{t}+b(s+t, X_{t})dt, \quad X_{0}=x, \] where $(s,x)\in \mathbb{R}_+ \times \mathbb{R}^{d}$ is the initial starting…

We identify a new scenario for dynamical phase transitions associated with time-integrated observables occurring in diffusive systems described by the macroscopic fluctuation theory. It is characterized by the pairwise meeting of first- and…

There has been much recent interest in the satisfiability of random Boolean formulas. A random k-SAT formula is the conjunction of m random clauses, each of which is the disjunction of k literals (a variable or its negation). It is known…
