In the first case, together with the exponential estimate, we also obtain an exponential stability test, in the second case we get estimation for solution growth. Here both the coefficients and the delays are measurable, not necessarily continuous.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-02-04T19:19:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "34K20", "34K25", "34K06" ], "keywords": [ "linear differential equations", "solution estimates", "linear scalar delay differential equation", "explicit exponential estimates", "exponential stability test" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
