Abstract

This paper concerns the problem of canonical factorization of a rational matrix functionW(ψ) which is analytic but may benot invertible at infinity. The factors are obtained explicitly in terms of the realization of the original matrix function. The cases of symmetric factorization for selfadjoint and positive rational matrix functions are considered separately.
