Linear Operators and Linear Systems An Analytical Approach to Control Theory [Paperback]

This book presents an introduction to the common ground between operator theory and linear systems theory.This book presents an introduction to the common ground between operator theory and linear systems theory. Pure mathematical topics are included such as Hardy spaces, closed operators, the gap metric, semigroups, shift-invariant subspaces, the commutant lifting theorem and almost-periodic functions, which would be entirely suitable for a course in functional analysis. The book also includes applications to partial differential equations, the stability and stabilization of linear systems, power signal spaces (including some recent material not previously available in books), and delay systems, treated from an input/output point of view.This book presents an introduction to the common ground between operator theory and linear systems theory.
