Characterization of singular graphs can be reduced to the non-trivial solutions of a system of linear homogeneous equations Ax = 0 for the 0-1 adjacency matrix A. A graph G is singular of nullity η(G) ≥ 1, if the dimension of the nullspace ker(A) of its adjacency matrix A is η(G). Necessary and sufficient conditions are determined for a graph to be singular in terms of admissible induced subgra...

In this work, N-periodic linear singular systems are considered. Feedbacks for obtaining positive N-periodic singular systems are analyzed. Some properties on the existence of these feedbacks are established. The concept of holdability of the setR+ is used for getting a positive trajectory of the closed-loop singular systems. This paper examines how feedbacks can be used to modify the trajector...

We present in this paper a structural decomposition for linear multivariable singular systems. Such a decomposition has a distinct feature of capturing and displaying all the structural properties, such as the finite and infinite zero structures, invertibility structures, and redundant dynamics of the given system. As its counterpart for non-singular systems, we believe that the technique is a ...

Singular system is a natural representation of dynamical systems. Guaranteed cost fuzzy control problem for a class of nonlinear singular system is addressed. The nonlinear singular system contains time-varying and norm-bounded uncertainties simultaneously in the matrices of states, delayed states and control inputs. Nonlinear singular system is formulated in the framework of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S...

Wiener systems consist of a linear dynamic system whose output is measured through a static non-linearity. In this paper we study the identification of single-input single-output Wiener systems with finite impulse response dynamics and polynomial output non-linearities. Using multi-index notation, we solve a least squares problem to estimate products of the coefficients of the non-linearity and...

Order-reduction techniques based on system balancing are developed for linear discrete systems using the method of singular perturbations. The generalized residualization technique is introduced with three variants as improved tools for orderreduction at low and medium frequencies. The newly introduced techniques have the same theoretical upper error bound with respect to the H∞ norm of the red...

Abstract. In this paper we study the Borel summability of formal solutions with a parameter of first order semilinear system of partial differential equations with n independent variables. In [Singular perturbation of linear systems with a regular singularity, J. Dynam. Control. Syst. 8 (2002), 313–322], Balser and Kostov proved the Borel summability of formal solutions with respect to a singul...

Singular-value decomposition (SVD) of a linear imaging system gives information on the null and measurement components of object and image and provides a method for object reconstruction from image data. We apply SVD to through-focus imaging systems that produce several two-dimensional images of a three-dimensional object. Analytical expressions for the singular functions are derived in the geo...
