Using stability theory of delayed differential equation (DDE), we show that there exists another limitation of delayed feedback control (DFC) with arbitrary delayed time when stabilizing unstable fixed points (UFPs) of continuous chaotic systems. This limitation is called by zero real part limitation, that is, if Jacobian matrix at a UFP has a characteristic exponent with zero real part. the UFP cannot be stabilized by linear DFC with arbitrary delayed time.
