Abstract:
We establish a theorem on the approximation of the solutions of delay differential equations with continuously distributed delay with solutions of delay differential equations with discrete delays. We present numerical simulations of the trajectories of discrete delay differential equations and the dependence of their behavior for various delay amounts. We further simulate continuously distributed delays by considering discrete approximation of the continuous distribution.

Abstract:
Systems whose time evolutions are entirely deterministic can nevertheless be studied probabilistically, <em>i. e. </em> in terms of the evolution of probability distributions rather than individual trajectories. This approach is central to the dynamics of ensembles (statistical mechanics) and systems with uncertainty in the initial conditions. It is also the basis of ergodic theory--the study of probabilistic invariants of dynamical systems--which provides one framework for understanding chaotic systems whose time evolutions are erratic and for practical purposes unpredictable.

Abstract:
Delay-differential equations are differential-difference equations in which the derivatives and shifts are taken with respect to the same variable. This thesis is concerned with these equations from the perspective of the theory of integrable systems, and more specifically, Painlevé equations. Both the classical Painlevé equations and their discrete analogues can be obtained as deautonomizations of equations solved by two-parameter families of elliptic functions. In analogy with this paradigm, we consider autonomous delay-differential equations solved by elliptic functions, delay-differentia

This thesis concerns the development of a method for the detection of small solutions to delay differential equations. The detection of small solutions is important because their presence has significant influence on the analytical prop¬erties of an equation.

Therefore this thesis focuses on the development of a reliable new method, based on finite order approximations of the underlying infinite dimen¬sional problem, which can detect small solutions.

We start with the logistic differential-delay equation applying techniques that would be used in subsequent chapters for other models being studied. A key goal of this research is to identify where the structure of the system does change. First, we investigate these models for critical point and study their behaviour close to these points.

A numerical method for the treatment of non-vanishing lag state dependent delay differential equations is developed in this work. This method is based on a (5,6) Runge-Kutta formula pair. The delayed term is approximated by a three-point Hermite polynomial. In order to obtain a highly accurate numerical scheme, special attention is given to the characterization and the localization of the derivative jump discontinuities of the solution. Some real-life problems are used to test the new method and compare it with existing ones.

We prove that the use of AD is exactly the same as considering the initial ODE and add new equations to the calculation of the variational flow up to a certain order. With this result we propose to detail the effective computation when these equations are affected by a delay. In particular

Stochastic delay differential equations naturally arise in models of complex natural phenomena, yet continue to resist efforts to find analytical solutions to them: general solutions are limited to linear systems with additive noise and a single delayed term. In this work we solve the case of distributed delays in linear systems with additive noise. Key to our solution is the development of a consistent interpretation for integrals over stochastic variables, obtained by means of a virtual discretization procedure. This procedure makes no assumption on the form of noise, and would likely be use

The limiting equation contains a noise-induced drift term that depends on the ratios of the time delays to the correlation times of the noises. We prove that, under appropriate assumptions, the solution of the equation obtained by the Taylor expansion converges
