Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the conditions for the existence of a Riccati solution \( X \) in the equation \( A*X+A'*X+X*W*X+Q \). Participants explore the implications of eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian matrix \( H \) and their relationship to the stability of the system represented by \( A + W*X \).

Discussion Character

  • Debate/contested
  • Technical explanation
  • Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • One participant asserts that the existence of \( X \) is linked to the eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian matrix \( H \), specifically that if \( H \) has no eigenvalues on the imaginary axis, then \( X \) exists.
  • Another participant questions this assertion, suggesting that the condition regarding eigenvalues on the imaginary axis may not be sufficient for the existence of \( X \), as \( A + W*X \) could have eigenvalues greater than zero.
  • There is a proposal that the Hamiltonian should be a Hermitian operator, implying a relationship between \( W \) and \( Q \).
  • One participant expresses uncertainty about how the existence of \( X \) is explained by the conditions stated in the text.
  • Another participant emphasizes that the relationship between the eigenvalues of \( H \) and \( A + W*X \) holds only when \( X \) is stable, suggesting that this stability condition is sufficient for the existence of \( X \).

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express differing views on whether the condition of eigenvalues of \( H \) not being on the imaginary axis is sufficient for the existence of \( X \). There is no consensus on this issue, and the discussion remains unresolved.

Contextual Notes

Participants highlight the complexity of the relationship between the eigenvalues of \( H \) and the stability of \( A + W*X \), indicating that additional assumptions or conditions may be necessary to fully understand the implications for the existence of \( X \.

in finding riccati solution of

A*X+A'*X+X*W*X+Q that is

X which stabilises A+W*X(real parts of eigen values are <0) ,it’s existence can
Found out by
Eigen values of Hamiltonian matrix H given by


H MATRIX=
!A W!
!Q -A!
because we have the relation

EIGEN VALUE OF H ARE GIVEN BY= EIGENVALUES OF (A+W*x)& - (A+W*x);

In text it is stated as if there is no eigen values of H are on imaginary axis then X exists

Means it can have in real parts of ( eigen values can be >0)

This can be possible
If A+W*x has negative real parts

And also A+W*x has positive real parts in which it is un stable

If it is so how can we say that just H matrix not having eigen values on imaginary axis is
Sufficient for X toexist
Can anyone explain me about this
Thanking you

Shouldn't hamiltonian be a hermite operator [tex]H=H^{\dagger}[/tex]. Then you would have W=Q*.

ya itis right but how it explains the existence of X
 
If you could rephrase the text I might help you more.
 
my point is to if H has real parts of eigen values greater than zero;which may be due to either A+W*X is having eigen values greater than zero;ordue to -(A+W*X)in which
case A+W*X has negative eigenvalues .hence we cannot say whether X exists or not just by looking at the any eigen values on imaginary axis ;means this condition for existence of X is not sufficient ,which is my understanding but in text it stated is sufficient ,i want to know how can it.
 
Well, sorry I cannot help you with that.
 
thing is the relation of eigen values of H and eigen values A+W*X is valid only for X Stable.hence it is sufficient
