چکیده
This note presents an elementary proof of the familiar Routh-Hurwitz test. The proof is basically one continuity argument, it does not rely on Sturm chains, Cauchy index and the principle of the argument and it is fully self-contained. In the same style an extended Routh-Hurwitz test is derived, which finds the inertia of polynomials.

Some Remarks on the -stability for Families of Polynomials
Using Brouwer degree, we prove a more general version of the zero exclusion principle for families of polynomials and apply it to obtain very simple proofs of extensions of recent results on the Routh-Hurwitz and Schur-Cohn stability of families of polynomials. 1. Introduction It is well know that the problem of the stability of a linear diierence or differential system with constant coeecients...
متن کاملOn Some Families of Integrals Solvable in Terms of Polygamma and Negapolygamma Functions
Beginning with Hermite’s integral representation of the Hurwitz zeta function, we derive explicit expressions in terms of elementary, polygamma, and negapolygamma functions for several families of integrals of the type ∫∞ 0 f(t)K(q, t)dt with kernels K(q, t) equal to ( e2πqt − 1 )−1 , ( e2πqt + 1 )−1 , and (sinh(2πqt))−1.
متن کاملOn Some Integrals Involving the Hurwitz Zeta Function: Part 2
Abstract. We establish a series of indefinite integral formulae involving the Hurwitz zeta function and other elementary and special functions related to it, such as the Bernoulli polynomials, ln sin(πq), ln Γ(q) and the polygamma functions. Many of the results are most conveniently formulated in terms of a family of functions Ak(q) := kζ (1 − k, q), k ∈ N, and a family of polygamma functions o...
متن کاملAn Algebraic Approach for stability Analysis of Linear Systems with Complex Coefficients
In this paper employing Routh's table, a geometrical stability criterion for the analysis of linear time-invariant system is formulated. The proposed stability criterion is applied for the system, whose characteristic equation having complex coefficients. For this Routh like table is presented with complex terms and the signs pair-wise elements with the first column of the table are observ...
