Abstract

In [14], [15] we introduced complex and real stability radii as robustness measures for stable matrices A under complex and real perturbations of the form AA + DΔE where D, E are given and Δ is unknown. In this paper we give a survey of the results obtained so far. Although our main reference will be to continuous-time systems we will also present some results for the discrete-time case.
