Hi all,

I have the following BMI (knowing that P, K and ##\gamma## are unknown with appropriate dimensions; the others are known).
[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
{{A^T}P + {K^T}{B^T}P + PA + PBK + C_z^T{C_z}}&{P{B_w}} \\
{B_w^TP}&{ - \gamma }
\end{array}} ] < 0

I would like to know if the above inequality are equivalent to the following by using Schur Complement:

[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
{{A^T}P + {K^T}{B^T}P + PA + PBK}&{C_z^T}&{P{B_w}} \\
{{C_z}}&{ - 1}&0 \\
{B_w^TP}&0&{ - \gamma }
\end{array}} ] < 0

Thank you very much in advance for your replies.

What does the above mean?
You've written it using LaTeX as an array, but an array is not a number, so can't be negative, positive, or even zero.

Also, what is BMI?

Same comment here.

There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
