On the existence of the linearizing state-feedback for nonlinear delay systems

This paper presents some of the results on the problem of exact linearization with delay decoupling for nonlinear delay systems. Geometrical conditions are found that ensure the existence of a coordinate transformation and of a static feedback that transforms the input-state delay equation into a linear equation without delay, and is easy to stabilize. Only standard tools of differential geometry are used in this work.
