Structured backward errors for eigenvalues of linear port-Hamiltonian descriptor systems
When computing the eigenstructure of matrix pencils associated with the
passivity analysis of perturbed port-Hamiltonian descriptor system using a
structured generalized eigenvalue method, one should make sure that the
computed spectrum satisfies the symmetries that corresponds to this structure
and the underlying physical system. We perform a backward error analysis and
show that for matrix pencils associated with port-Hamiltonian descriptor
systems and a given computed eigenstructure with the correct symmetry structure
there always exists a nearby port-Hamiltonian descriptor system with exactly
that eigenstructure. We also derive bounds for how near this system is and show
that the stability radius of the system plays a role in that bound
Bounded real lemmas for positive descriptor systems
A well known result in the theory of linear positive systems is the existence of positive definite diagonal matrix (PDDM) solutions to some well known linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). In this paper, based on the positivity characterization, a novel bounded real lemma for continuous positive descriptor systems in terms of strict LMI is first established by the separating hyperplane theorem. The result developed here provides a necessary and sufficient condition for systems to possess H?H? norm less than ? and shows the existence of PDDM solution. Moreover, under certain condition, a simple model reduction method is introduced, which can preserve positivity, stability and H?H? norm of the original systems. An advantage of such method is that systems? matrices of the reduced order systems do not involve solving of LMIs conditions. Then, the obtained results are extended to discrete case. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained results
Efficient Solution of Large-Scale Algebraic Riccati Equations Associated with Index-2 DAEs via the Inexact Low-Rank Newton-ADI Method

doi:10.1016/j.apnum.2016.05.006 to Riccati equations associated with Hessenberg
index-2 Differential Algebratic Equation (DAE) systems. Such DAE systems arise,
e.g., from semi-discretized, linearized (around steady state) Navier-Stokes
equations. The solution of the associated Riccati equation is important, e.g.,
to compute feedback laws that stabilize the Navier-Stokes equations. Challenges
in the numerical solution of the Riccati equation arise from the large-scale of
the underlying systems and the algebraic constraint in the DAE system. These
challenges are met by a careful extension of the inexact low-rank Newton-ADI
method to the case of DAE systems. A main ingredient in the extension to the
DAE case is the projection onto the manifold described by the algebraic
constraints. In the algorithm, the equations are never explicitly projected,
but the projection is only applied as needed. Numerical experience indicates
that the algorithmic choices for the control of inexactness and line-search can
help avoid subproblems with matrices that are only marginally stable. The
performance of the algorithm is illustrated on a large-scale Riccati equation
associated with the stabilization of Navier-Stokes flow around a cylinder.Comment: 21 pages, 2 figures, 4 table
