Singular systems have been studied extensively during the last two decades due Abstract to their many practical applications. Such systems possess numerous properties not shared by the well-known state variable systems. This paper considers the linear tracking problem for the continuous-time singular systems. The Hamilton-Jacobi theory is used in order to compute the optimal control and associa...

A stochastic stabilization problem for a class of discrete-time switched linear singular system is considered in this paper. By using the Bernoulli variable, a kind of stochastic controller is developed, which ensures the discrete-time switched linear singular system stochastically stable. Based on a linear matrix inequality technology, a sufficient existence condition for such new controller i...

A direct method is developed that reduces a polynomial system matrix describing a discrete linear repetitive process to a 2-D singular state-space form such that all the relevant properties, including the zero structure of the system matrix, are retained. It is shown that the transformation linking the original polynomial system matrix with its associated 2-D singular form is zero coprime syste...

in this paper, we try to use modeling based on singular perturbation theory, in order to control satellite attitude during the wide rolling angle maneuvering through nonlinear h∞ control strategy. differential equations describing dynamics of the satellite are presented first, and by choosing the appropriate dynamic model for actuators and based on the standard singular perturbation model, the ...

We present in this paper a survey of recent results on the relation between time and norm optimality for linear systems and the infinite dimensional version of Pontryagin’s maximum principle. In particular, we discuss optimality (or nonoptimality) of singular controls satisfying the maximum principle and smoothness of the costate in function of smoothness of the target.

In this paper, a special technique is studied by using the orthogonal Chebyshev polynomials to get approximate solutions for singular and hyper-singular integral equations of the first kind. A singular integral equation is converted to a system of algebraic equations based on using special properties of Chebyshev series. The error bounds are also stated for the regular part of approximate solut...

Abstract. While the tangent space to an equisingular family of curves can be discribed by the sections of a twisted ideal sheaf, this is no longer true if we only prescribe the multiplicity which a singular point should have. However, it is still possible to compute the dimension of the tangent space with the aid of the equimulitplicity ideal. In this note we consider families Lm = {(C, p) ∈ |L...

The first Section below extends to m × n matrices the results on orthogonality and projection we have previously seen for vectors. The Sections thereafter use these concepts to introduce the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) of a matrix, the pseudo-inverse, and its use for the solution of linear systems.
