Abstract

Needs to be found, is a classical equation. There has been much study, both from theoretical and computational view points, on this equation. The results of existence and uniqueness are well-known and numerically effective algorithms have been developed in recent years (see, Datta [2]), to compute the solution.

Dedicated to Biswa Datta for his contribution to numerical aspects of control theory, in particular to Sylvester-observer equation.
