Solving linear differential equations with mixed arguments

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations
We present an expression for the solutions of a special initial value  problem for a deviated linear n-dimensional differential equation. In this equation the time-deviations are of mixed type (advanced or delayed)  and they have fixed points. The key assumption is that these deviations  are odd functions.
