Summary
Given a difference-differential equation of the type
inT-periodic function spaces, we find conditions on the constantsa,b, τ,T which are necessary and sufficient for the validity of maximum and minimum principles. The theoretical results are completed by a numerical procedure for the actual computation of such conditions.
