Abstract

For more than half a century, spectral factorization is encountered in various fields of science and engineering. It is a useful tool in robust and optimal control and filtering and many other areas. It is also a nice control-theoretical concept closely related to Riccati equation. As a quadratic equation in polynomials, it is a challenging algebraic task.
