The origins of this book go back more than twenty years when, funded by small grants from the European Union, the control theory groups from the universities of Bremen and Warwick set out to develop a course in ?nite dimensional systems t- ory suitable for students with a mathematical background, who had taken courses in Analysis, Linear Algebra and Di?erential Equations. Various versions of the course were given to undergraduates at Bremen and Warwick and a set of lecture notes was produced entitled “Introduction to Mathematical Systems Theory”. As well as ourselves, the main contributors to these notes were Peter Crouch and Dietmar Salamon. Some years later we decided to expand the lecture notes into a textbook on mathematical systems theory. When we made this decision we were not very realistic about how long it would take us to complete the project. Mathematical control theory is a rather young discipline and its foundations are not as settled as those of more mature mathematical ?elds. Its basic principles and what is c- sidered to be its core are still changing under the in?uence of new problems, new approaches and new currents of research. This complicated our decisions about the basic outline and the orientation of the book. During the period of our writing, problems of uncertainty and robustness, which had been forgotten for some time in ’modern control’, gradually re-emerged and came to the foreground of control theory.

Reviews for Mathematical Systems Theory I: Modelling, State Space Analysis, Stability and Robustness

From the reviews: This textbook on finite-dimensional time-invariant linear systems theory ... links up with the extensive research contributions of the authors, geared towards developing a spectral theory for uncertain systems. ... Each section ends with a detailed list of notes and references ... . this textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to linear systems theory with clear focus on robustness and uncertainty. ... is bound to become a standard textbook and reference in its area. We are looking forward to the second volume. Matthias Kawski, Mathematical Reviews, 2005j This book has been written by famous mathematicians. [...] A lot of new examples, explanations and figures were added, making this book accessible and well readable for engineers as well as mathematicians. This book is one of the best books on the subject. Alexander O. Ignatyev, MATH Database 1931. 2006 Mathematical Systems Theory I ... provides a detailed and rigorous mathematical development of finite-dimensional, time-invariant linear systems. ... The intended audience for this text is advanced undergraduates and first or second year graduate students. The authors suggest that several courses based on their book are possible depending on the selection of chapters. Indeed, the content ranges from rigorous proofs of basic results in linear systems theory to new results on the research frontier. In that sense, the book also serves as a valuable research reference. (William J. Satzer, MathDL, May, 2005) The book is ... well written and well organized. ... MST-I can be properly deemed an essential addition to the personal library of any researcher in systems theory. ... MST-I is a superb exposition of advanced aspects of linear systems theory and is highly recommended for graduate students and researchers who have some prior background in control-systems theory and who have specific interests in problems of stability, robustness, and uncertainty. (K. A. Grasse, Transactions on Automatic Control, Vol. 51 (4), April, 2006) This book provides a thorough description of the theory of linear systems. ... I heartily recommend this book as a ... reference for researchers doing theoretical work involving linear systems. ... There is no doubt that parts of the text could be successfully used for a graduate course in a mathematics program ... . The book is a welcome addition to the library of work on systems theory and will no doubt serve as a valuable reference in many studies. (Brain Ingalls, Control Systems Magazine, April, 2006) This textbook contains a rigorous and detailed mathematical treatment of the basic elements of finite-dimensional time-invariant linear systems. ... This volume is a comprehensive introduction to linear systems theory with clear focus on robustness and uncertainty. It can be used as a textbook for mathematics students after two years of study and also to engineering students with a good mathematical background. ... it can be recommended for researchers as well as mathematicians and engineers interested in systems theory .
