Pseudospectra and stability radii for analytic matrix functions with application to time-delay systems

Abstract

Definitions for pseudospectra and stability radii of an analytic matrix function are given, where the structure of the function is exploited. Various perturbation measures are considered and computationally tractable formulae are derived. The results are applied to a class of retarded delay differential equations. Special properties of the pseudospectra of such equations are determined and illustrated.
