Integral representation formula for linear non-autonomous difference-delay equations

This note states and proves an integral representation formula of the ``variation-of-constant’’ type for continuous solutions of linear non-autonomous difference delay systems, in terms of a Lebesgue-Stieltjes integral involving a fundamental solution and the initial data of the system. This gives a precise and correct version of several formulations appearing in the literature, and extends them to the time-varying case. This is of importance for further stability studies of various kinds of delay systems.
