Pseudospectral discretization of delay differential equations in <i>sun-star</i> formulation: Results and conjectures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper we study the pseudospectral approximation of delay differential equations formulated as abstract differential equations in the $ \odot* $-space. This formalism also allows us to define rigorously the abstract variation-of-constants formula, where the $ \odot* $-shift operator plays a fundamental role. By applying the pseudospectral discretization technique we derive a system of ordinary differential equations, whose dynamics can be efficiently analyzed by existing bifurcation tools. To better understand to what extent the resulting finite-dimensional system 'mimics' the dynamics of the original infinite-dimensional one, we study the pseudospectral approximations of the $ \odot* $-shift operator and of the $ \odot* $-generator in the supremum norm, which is the natural choice for delay differential equations, when the discretization parameter increases. In this context there are still open questions. We collect the most relevant results from the literature and we present some conjectures, supported by various numerical experiments, to illustrate the behavior w.r.t. the discretization parameter and to indicate the direction of ongoing and future research.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
