Essentials of Robust Control

Real and Complex Analysis

The evolution of the state of many systems modeled by linear partial diﬁerentialequations (PDEs) or linear delay-diﬁerential equations can be described by operatorsemigroups. The state of such a system is an element in an inﬂnite-dimensionalnormed space, whence the name \inﬂnite-dimensional linear system".The study of operator semigroups is a mature area of functional analysis, which isstill very active. The study of observation and control operators for such semigroupsis relatively more recent. These operators are needed to model the interactionof a system with the surrounding world via outputs or inputs. The main topicsof interest about observation and control operators are admissibility, observability,controllability, stabilizability and detectability. Observation and control operatorsare an essential ingredient of well-posed linear systems (or more generally systemnodes). Inthisbookwedealonlywithadmissibility, observabilityandcontrollability.We deal only with operator semigroups acting on Hilbert spaces.This book is meant to be an elementary introduction into the topics mentionedabove. By \elementary" we mean that we assume no prior knowledge of ﬂnite-dimensional control theory, and no prior knowledge of operator semigroups or ofunbounded operators. We introduce everything needed from these areas. We doassume that the reader has a basic understanding of bounded operators on Hilbertspaces, diﬁerential equations, Fourier and Laplace transforms, distributions andSobolev spaces on

A Course In Functional Analysis

THE criticism on the passage quoted from p. 3 of the book by Profs. Harkness and Morley (NATURE, February 23, p. 347) turns on the fact that, in dealing with number divorced from measurement, the authors have used the phrase “an infinity of objects” without an explicit statement of its meaning. I am not sure that I understand the passage in their letter which refers to this point; but it seems to me to imply that the distinction between “finite” and “infinite” is one which does not require definition. This is not the only accepted view. It is not, for instance, the view taken in Herr Dedekind's book, “Was sind und was sollen die Zahlen.” As regards the opening sentences of Chapter xv., the authors have apparently misunderstood the point of my objection. With the usually received definition of convergence of an infinite product, Π(1-αn), if convergent, is different from zero. So far as the passage quoted goes, Π(1-αn) might be zero; and it is therefore not shown to be convergent, if the usual definition of convergence be assumed. As to the passage quoted from p. 232, I must express to the authors my regret for having overlooked the fact that the particular rearrangement, there made use of, has been fully justified in Chapter viii. Whether Log x is or is not, at the beginning of Chapter iv., defined by means of a string and a cone, will be obvious to any one who will read the whole passage (p. 46, line 16, to p. 47, line 9) leading up to the definition.

Theory of Functions

This textbook is an introduction to the theory of Hilbert space and its applications. The notion of Hilbert space is central in functional analysis and is used in numerous branches of pure and applied mathematics. Dr Young has stressed applications of the theory, particularly to the solution of partial differential equations in mathematical physics and to the approximation of functions in complex analysis. Some basic familiarity with real analysis, linear algebra and metric spaces is assumed, but otherwise the book is self-contained. It is based on courses given at the University of Glasgow and contains numerous examples and exercises (many with solutions). Thus it will make an excellent first course in Hilbert space theory at either undergraduate or graduate level and will also be of interest to electrical engineers and physicists, particularly those involved in control theory and filter design.

A Γ-contraction is a pair of commuting operators on Hilbert space for which the symmetrised bidisc Γ def = {(z1 + z2, z1z2) : |z1| 6 1, |z2| 6 1} ⊂ C 2 is a spectral set. We develop a model theory for such pairs which parallels a part of the well-known Nagy-Foias model for contractions. In particular we show that any Γ-contraction is unitarily equivalent to the restriction to a joint invariant subspace of the orthogonal direct sum of a Γ-unitary and a “model Γ-contraction” of the form (Tψ, Tz) where Tψ, Tz are suitable blockToeplitz operators on a vectorial Hardy space, and Γ-unitaries are defined to be pairs of operators of the form (U1 + U2, U1U2) for some pair U1, U2 of commuting unitaries.
