Solution of the First Boundary-Value Problem for a System of Autonomous Second-Order Linear Partial Differential Equations of Parabolic Type with a Single Delay

Abstract EN

The first boundary-value problem for an autonomous second-order system of linear partial differential equations of parabolic type with a single delay is considered.

Assuming that a decomposition of the given system into a system of independent scalar second-order linear partial differential equations of parabolic type with a single delay is possible, an analytical solution to the problem is given in the form of formal series and the character of their convergence is discussed.

A delayed exponential function is used in order to analytically solve auxiliary initial problems (arising when Fourier method is applied) for ordinary linear differential equations of the first order with a single delay.
