Orthogonal embeddings of linear time-varying systems

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Given a contractive linear system T which is represented as a causal linear contractive operator on a Hilbert space H, we study the question: When does there exist an isometric or unitary causal extension of T to H ⊕H? Here causality is formulated as a lower triangularity condition and we assume the same causality structure for the extension. This question is often referred to as the generalized Darlington synthesis problem for linear time-varying systems.
