A Note on the Interpretation of Distributed Delay Equations

Dynamical Systems 2021-06-23 v1 Probability

Abstract

Distributed delay equations have been used to model situations in which there is some sort of delay whose duration is uncertain. However, the interpretation of a distributed delay equation is actually very different from that of a delay differential equation with a random delay. This work explicitly highlights this distinction as it is an important consideration to make when modeling delayed systems in which the delay can take on several values.
