Approximation Theory and Numerical Methods for Delay Differential Equations

  • Chapter
Delay Equations, Approximation and Application

Abstract

The latest research shows that the numerical treatment of delay differential equations leads to various approximation and optimization problems. In this manuscript of introductory character several aspects of this circle of problems are described. Moreover, some problems are stated and a few new observations are added.
