I’m interested in the constant delay-constant coefficient third order differential equation (E): x’’’(t)+ax’’(t)+bx’(t)+cx(t-tau) = 0.
If all real roots of its pertaining characteristic equation are negative, there could still exist a nonoscillatory solution of (E) which does not tend to zero (obtained looking for a solution in the another form as e^(lambda*t)) — exactly, is there any proof of that?
