On the Relation of Delay Equations to First-Order Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations
This paper establishes the equivalence between systems described by a single
first-order hyperbolic partial differential equation and systems described by
integral delay equations. System-theoretic results are provided for both
classes of systems (among them converse Lyapunov results). The proposed
framework can allow the study of discontinuous solutions for nonlinear systems
described by a single first-order hyperbolic partial differential equation
under the effect of measurable inputs acting on the boundary and/or on the
differential equation. An illustrative example shows that the conversion of a
system described by a single first-order hyperbolic partial differential
equation to an integral delay system can simplify considerably the solution of
the corresponding robust feedback stabilization problem.Comment: 32 pages, submitted for possible publication to ESAIM COC
