Linear time-varying systems: algebraic-analytic approach

The aim of this book is to propose a new approach to analysis and control of linear time-varying systems. These systems are defined in an intrinsic way, i.e., not by a particular representation (e.g., a transfer matrix or a state-space form) but as they are actually. The system equations, derived, e.g., fromthe laws of physics, are gathered to form an intrinsic mathematical object, namely a finitely presented module over a ring of operators. This is strongly connected with the engineering point of view, according to which a system is not a specific set of equations but an object of the material world which can be described by equivalent sets of equations. This viewpoint makes it possibleto formulate and solve efficiently several key problems of the theory of control in the case of linear time-varying systems. The solutions are based on algebraic analysis. . This book, written for engineers, is also useful for mathematicians since it shows how algebraic analysis can be applied to solve engineering problems. . Henri Bourlès is a Professor and holds the industrial automation chair at the Conservatoire national des arts et métiers in France. He has been teaching automation for over 20 years in engineering and graduate schools. . Bogdan Marinescu is currently research engineer at the French Transmission System Operator (RTE) and Associate Professor at SATIE-Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan. Comprehensive treatment of the theory of linear time-varying systems. Unified approach based on ring and module theory. Written by leading experts in this field. INDICE: Part I Mathematical tools. Part II Algebraic Theory of Linear Systems. Part III Applications. Part IV Complements.
