Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In dynamical systems, the delay phenomenon is a generic part of industrial, communication, economical, biological, and similar processes that considerably affects their stability and dynamics. Moreover, it unambiguously deteriorates the quality of control performance in feedback loops. The study of the influence of delays on system stability, dynamics, and control performance poses a challenging mathematic exercise. System and control theories have worked to tackle this issue for almost a century, since the publication of the famous work by Volterra (1928). Modern theory is confronted with increasing requirements for the quality and performance of control systems in the industry, as well as in everyday reality, which can hardly be achieved using conventional methods. In order to meet these goals, more in-depth knowledge of the controlled delayed systems is a prerequisite.
This Special Issue of Mathematics is focused on recent developments in approaches to time-delay systems analysis and control design. We seek papers on system stability and dynamics analysis, including exponential, asymptotic, strong, delay-dependent, delay-independent, BIBO, H2, H∞, and other types of system stability. Hopf, fold, and pitchfork bifurcation; stability switching; and eigenvalue analyses are also welcome. Special consideration will be given to delays of neutral types and systems given by algebraic-differential equations; however, systems with retarded delays are also acceptable. In addition, the scope of this Special Issue includes modern control methods and their applications, such as switched systems, event-triggered control, Lyapunov–Razumikhin- and Krasovskii-type approaches, etc.
All submitted papers will be peer reviewed and selected on the basis of their quality and relevance to this Special Issue.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
