This monograph has arisen out of a number of attempts spanning almost five decades to understand how one might examine the evolution of densities in systems whose dynamics are described by differential delay equations. Though the authors have no definitive solution to the problem, they offer this contribution in an attempt to define the problem as they see it, and to sketch out several obvious attempts that have been suggested to solve the problem and which seem to have failed. They hope that by being available to the general mathematical community, they will inspire others to consider-and hopefully solve-the problem. Serious attempts have been made by all of the authors over the years and they have made reference to these where appropriate.

Industry Reviews

"The book is devoted to the problem of evolution of densities in dynamical systems described by delay differential equations. ... The book is interesting and introduces the reader to the problem of the evolution of the densities. Indeed, formulating (if possible) such an evolution one is able to guess the asymptotic behavior of the solutions with known density of their initial values. The examples in the book are carefully selected in order to illustrate the main theoretical results." (George Karakostas, zbMATH 1462.37001, 2021)
