When is a first-order delay differential equation equivalent to a higher-order ordinary differential equation?

The proportional delay differential equation $$ xf'(x)+2xf'(x/2)+C+4f(x/2)-5f(x)=0 $$ with initial condition $f(0)=C$ expresses that Simpson's rule exactly integrates $f$ over any interval $[0,x]$ and ...

Tight upper bound for $m[Q^k - Q^{k+1}]$ for completely positive linear maps

Let $m: \mathcal{L}(\mathbb{R}^{d \times d}) \to \mathbb{R}$ be the function $$ m[H] = \frac{\lambda_{\max}(H[\mathbf{I}])}{\lambda_{\max}(H)}, $$ where $\lambda_{\max}$ denotes the largest eigenvalue....
