Abstract

An inverse realization problem is solved for a class of analytic functions: Given a function, find a regular differential polynomial that annihilates it. It is shown that the minimal annihilator has degree \(m+1\), where m is the highest multiplicity of the zeros of x belonging to a class of analytic functions. This generalizes the realization of Bohl functions as solutions to LTI-ODE’s. With it, the unit solution of the scale-delay equation (SDE) is approximated as the solution to a second-order time-variant ODE. Some new identities for the exact zeros of the SDE are proven.
