The generic multiplicity-induced-dominancy property from retarded to neutral delay-differential equations: when delay-systems characteristics meet the zeros of Kummer functions (Q2131738)

The paper is devoted to investigation of a time-delay system. The structure of the paper is as follows. First, the autors present some prerequisites in complex analysis. Then, they show the validity of the generic multiplicity-induced-dominancy property for linear functional differential equations with a single delay, including the retarded as well as the neutral types. Further, the general results are illustrated on the problem of stabilization of the classical pendulum and the feedback stabilization for a scalar conservation law with proportional-integral (PI) boundary control.
