The multidelays linear control systems described by difference differential equations are often studied in modern control theory. In this paper, the delay-independent stabilization algebraic criteria and the theorem of delay-independent stabilization for linear systems with multiple time-delays are established by using the Lyapunov functional and the Riccati algebra matrix equation in the matri...

This paper is concerned with rational matrix equations occuring in stochastic control that play an analogous role as the algebraic Riccati equation does in deterministic control. We will therefore sometimes refer to these equations as stochastic (algebraic) Riccati equations. A first rigorous treatment of a stochastic Riccati equation from LQ-control theory seems to have been undertaken by Wonh...

We consider multi-grid, or more appropriately, multi-level techniques for the numerical solution of operator Lyapunov and algebraic Riccati equations. The Riccati equation, which is quadratic, plays an essential role in the solution of linear-quadratic optimal control problems. The linear Lyapunov equation is important in the stability theory for linear systems and its solution is the primary s...

In this study, we present a direct method to solve nonlinear two-dimensional VolterraHammerestein integral equations in terms of twodimensional piecewise constant block-pulse functions (2D-PCBFs). Properties of these functions and operational matrix of integration together with the product operational matrix are presented and used to transform the integral equation to a matrix equation which co...

New algorithms for solving algebraic Riccati equations (ARE) which arise in fluid queues models are introduced. They are based on reducing the ARE to a unilateral quadratic matrix equation of the kind AX2 + BX + C = 0 and on applying the Cayley transform in order to arrive at a suitable spectral splitting of the associated matrix polynomial. A shifting technique for removing unwanted eigenvalue...

let $rin textbf{c}^{mtimes m}$ and $sin textbf{c}^{ntimes n}$ be nontrivial involution matrices; i.e., $r=r^{-1}neq pm~i$ and $s=s^{-1}neq pm~i$. an $mtimes n$ complex matrix $a$ is said to be an $(r, s)$-symmetric ($(r, s)$-skew symmetric) matrix if $ras =a$ ($ ras =-a$). the $(r, s)$-symmetric and $(r, s)$-skew symmetric matrices have a number of special properties and widely used in engi...

I compare the matrix representation of the basic statements of Special Relativity with the conventional vector space representation. It is shown, that the matrix form reproduces all equations in a very concise and elegant form, namely: Maxwell equations, Lorentz-force, energy-momentum tensor, Dirac-equation and Lagrangians. The main thesis is, however, that both forms are nevertheless not equiv...

In this paper, necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the positive definite solutions of the nonlinear matrix equation X + A*X ! A =Q are presented, when A is nonsingular and s an integer, as well as some new properties and bounds for the eigenvalues of matrices related to A,Q are discussed. An algebraic method for the computation of the solutions is proposed, based on the alg...

It is shown that, under appropriate assumptions, the continuous algebraic Riccati equation with Toeplitz matrices as coefficients has Toeplitz-like solutions. Both infinite and sequences of finite Toeplitz matrices are considered, and also studied is the finite section method, which consists in approximating infinite systems by large finite truncations. The results are proved by translating the...
