The solvability of a delay differential equation arising in the construction of quadratic cost functionals, i.e., Lyapunov functionals, for a linear time-delay system with a constant and a distributed delay is investigated. We present a delay-free auxiliary ordinary differential equation system with algebraically coupled split-boundary conditions, which characterizes the solutions of the delay differential equation and is used for solution synthesis. A spectral property of the time-delay system yields a necessary and sufficient condition for existence and uniqueness of solutions to the auxiliary system, equivalently the delay differential equation. The result is a tractable analytic solution framework to the delay differential equation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
