Abstract

In Chapters 6 through 10 we saw how the distance formulas and factorization theorems described in Chapter 3 provided an elegant framework for the formulation and solution of problems relating to stabilization and robustness of linear time-varying systems. Here we consider a problem that has its origins in classical network theory. A network is characterized as a stable linear systems as defined in Section 5.5.Sis passive ifI — S*S≥ 0, and lossless ifI — S*S= 0. In operator theoretic terminology, passive systems are contractions, ‖S‖ ≤ 1, and lossless systems are isometries.
