Effective algorithms for parametrizing linear control systems over Ore algebras

Applicable Algebra in Engineering, Communication and Computing Aims and scope

Abstract

In this paper, we study linear control systems over Ore algebras. Within this mathematical framework, we can simultaneously deal with different classes of linear control systems such as time-varying systems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), differential time-delay systems, underdetermined systems of partial differential equations (PDEs), multidimensional discrete systems, multidimensional convolutional codes, etc. We give effective algorithms which check whether or not a linear control system over some Ore algebra is controllable, parametrizable, flat or π-free.
