Abstract

We construct a theory of realizations and controllability domains for linear stationary systems in the category of finitely generated free semimodules over a Boolean semiring. We show that the classical realization theorems cannot be generalized to this case, and we prove some incomplete analogs of these theorems. We analyze the structure of controllability domains and the reachability and observability characteristics. In particular, we define a geometric object representing the reachability properties of a system, namely, the generalized reachability topology on the state space.
