Simultaneous Stabilization of Linear Systems is devoted to a single question from Linear Systems Theory: "When is it possible to find a controller that stabilizes a finite family of systems?", known as the Simultaneous Stabilization Question. This question is satisfactorily solved when the number of systems is limited to two but is open for three or more systems. This constitutes one of the important, longstanding open problems in Linear Systems Theory. Dr. Blondel reviews partial answers and discusses partial answers with equivalent formulations of the problem. Particular emphasis is placed on interlacement conditions. The parity and the interlacing conditions are presented in a clear and unified framework. The final chapter "proves" the latest research progress and shows that, contrary to most of the questions in Linear Systems Theory, there exists no necessary and sufficient conditions for simultaneous stabilization of three or more systems that involve only the coefficients of the systems and a combination of rational operations.

One of the main problems in control theory is the stabilization problem consisting of finding a feedback control law ensuring stability; when the linear approximation is considered, the nat ural problem is stabilization of a linear system by linear state feedback or by using a linear dynamic controller. This prob lem was intensively studied during the last decades and many important results have been obtained. The present monograph is based mainly on results obtained by the authors. It focuses on stabilization of systems with slow and fast motions, on stabilization procedures that use only poor information about the system (high-gain stabilization and adaptive stabilization), and also on discrete time implementa tion of the stabilizing procedures. These topics are important in many applications of stabilization theory. We hope that this monograph may illustrate the way in which mathematical theories do influence advanced technol ogy. This book is not intended to be a text book nor a guide for control-designers. In engineering practice, control-design is a very complex task in which stability is only one of the re quirements and many aspects and facets of the problem have to be taken into consideration. Even if we restrict ourselves to stabilization, the book does not provide just recipes, but it fo cuses more on the ideas lying behind the recipes. In short, this is not a book on control, but on some mathematics of control.

This authored monograph presents a study on fundamental limits and robustness of stability and stabilization of time-delay systems, with an emphasis on time-varying delay, robust stabilization, and newly emerged areas such as networked control and multi-agent systems. The authors systematically develop an operator-theoretic approach that departs from both the traditional algebraic approach and the currently pervasive LMI solution methods. This approach is built on the classical small-gain theorem, which enables the author to draw upon powerful tools and techniques from robust control theory. The book contains motivating examples and presents mathematical key facts that are required in the subsequent sections. The target audience primarily comprises researchers and professionals in the field of control theory, but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students alike.
