# [✓] Get symbolic solution expressions of Delay Differential Equations?

GROUPS:
 Hello all, The Wolfram documentation suggests to tackle Delay differential equations ( DDE's ) with NSolve, but I need a symbolic expression of the solution for my current analysis. So, I'm trying to solve using Dsolve. I found a threadhttps://www.wolfram.com/mathematica/new-in-10/enhanced-calculus-and-differential-equations/find-symbolic-solutions-for-delay-differential-equ.htmlwhich suggests a way to get symbolic expressions and tried the same for my current problem. But, I didn't get any favorable output. I have attached the file, any help in this regard will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance Attachments:
 Mariusz Iwaniuk 3 Votes I do not know why there is an error but not using Subscript it works :  DSolve[{q[t] + omc*q[t] - omc*q[t - 1] + 2*sig*q'[t] + q''[t] == 0, q[t /; t < 0] == 0}, q[t], {t, 0, 2}] Another Example:  DSolve[{q[t] + omc*q[t] - omc*q[t - 1] + 2*sig*q'[t] + q''[t] == 0, q[t /; t < 0] == 1}, q[t], {t, 0, 1}] Regards Mariusz.
