Functional Analysis and Linear Control Theory

Functional analysis provides a concise conceptual framework for linear control theory. This self-contained text, geared toward engineering students, demonstrates the subject's unity. It features a wide range of powerful theorems that illustrate inner product spaces, instability, controllability, and observability. It also discusses minimum norm and time control as well as distributed systems.
The first chapter offers a brief survey of basic mathematics, followed by chapters that contain m…
