Approximate controllability of the n-th order infinite dimensional systems with controls delayed by the control devices

The main aim of this article is to derive general conditions for a few types of controllability at once for an arbitrary order abstract differential equation and arbitrary eigenvalues multiplicities, instead of conditions for fixed order equation and single eigenvalues. Another innovation of this article is taking into account delays caused by electronic control microcontrollers. This was possible thanks to analysis of the n-th order linear system in the Frobenius form, generating Jordan transition matrix of the confluent Vandermonde form. Using the explicit analytical form of the inverse confluent Vandermonde matrix enabled us to receive general conditions of different types of controllability for the infinite dimensional systems. We derived this analytical form of the inverse confluent Vandermonde matrix using new results from the linear algebra, presented in the paper by S. Hou and W. Pang, Inversion of confluent Vandermonde matrices, Int. J. Comput. Math. Appl., 43, pp. 1539-1547, 2002.
