Abstract

The stable factorizations of a monic matrix polynomial are characterized in terms of spectral properties. Proofs are based on the divisibility theory developed by I. Gohberg, P. Lancaster and L. Rodman. A large part of the paper is devoted to a detailed analysis of stable invariant subspaces of a matrix. The results are also used to describe all stable solutions of the operator Riccati equation.
