New Square-Root Factorization of Inverse Toeplitz Matrices
Abstract-Square-root (in particular, Cholesky) factorization of Toeplitz matrices and of their inverses is a classical area of research. The Schur algorithm yields directly the Cholesky factorization of a symmetric Toeplitz matrix, whereas the Levinson algorithm does the same for the inverse matrix. The objective of this letter is to use results from the theory of rational orthonormal functions to derive square-root factorizations of the inverse of an n Ă— n positive definite Toeplitz matrix. The main result is a new factorization based on the Takenaka-Malmquist functions, that is parameterized by the roots of the corresponding auto-regressive polynomial of order n. We will also discuss briefly the connection between our analysis and some classical results such as Schur polynomials and the Gohberg-Semencul inversion formula
New Structured Matrix Methods for Real and Complex Polynomial Root-finding
We combine the known methods for univariate polynomial root-finding and for
computations in the Frobenius matrix algebra with our novel techniques to
advance numerical solution of a univariate polynomial equation, and in
particular numerical approximation of the real roots of a polynomial. Our
analysis and experiments show efficiency of the resulting algorithms.Comment: 18 page
A fast, preconditioned conjugate gradient Toeplitz solver
A simple factorization is given of an arbitrary hermitian, positive definite matrix in which the factors are well-conditioned, hermitian, and positive definite. In fact, given knowledge of the extreme eigenvalues of the original matrix A, an optimal improvement can be achieved, making the condition numbers of each of the two factors equal to the square root of the condition number of A. This technique is to applied to the solution of hermitian, positive definite Toeplitz systems. Large linear systems with hermitian, positive definite Toeplitz matrices arise in some signal processing applications. A stable fast algorithm is given for solving these systems that is based on the preconditioned conjugate gradient method. The algorithm exploits Toeplitz structure to reduce the cost of an iteration to O(n log n) by applying the fast Fourier Transform to compute matrix-vector products. Matrix factorization is used as a preconditioner
Finite-time behavior of inner systems
In this paper, we investigate how nonminimum phase characteristics of a dynamical system affect its controllability and tracking properties. For the class of linear time-invariant dynamical systems, these characteristics are determined by transmission zeros of the inner factor of the system transfer function. The relation between nonminimum phase zeros and Hankel singular values of inner systems is studied and it is shown how the singular value structure of a suitably defined operator provides relevant insight about system invertibility and achievable tracking performance. The results are used to solve various tracking problems both on finite as well as on infinite time horizons. A typical receding horizon control scheme is considered and new conditions are derived to guarantee stabilizability of a receding horizon controller
Positivity, rational Schur functions, Blaschke factors, and other related results in the Grassmann algebra
We begin a study of Schur analysis in the setting of the Grassmann algebra,
when the latter is completed with respect to the -norm. We focus on the
rational case. We start with a theorem on invertibility in the completed
algebra, and define a notion of positivity in this setting. We present a series
of applications pertaining to Schur analysis, including a counterpart of the
Schur algorithm, extension of matrices and rational functions. Other topics
considered include Wiener algebra, reproducing kernels Banach modules, and
Blaschke factors.Comment: 35 page
