  2. Stability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_theory

    If all eigenvalues of J are real or complex numbers with absolute value strictly less than 1 then a is a stable fixed point; if at least one of them has absolute value strictly greater than 1 then a is unstable. Just as for n =1, the case of the largest absolute value being 1 needs to be investigated further — the Jacobian matrix test is ...

  3. Relative gain array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_Gain_Array

    The relative gain array (RGA) is a classical widely-used [citation needed] method for determining the best input-output pairings for multivariable process control systems. [1] It has many practical open-loop and closed-loop control applications and is relevant to analyzing many fundamental steady-state closed-loop system properties such as ...

  4. Equilibrium point (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_point...

    That is to say, by evaluating the Jacobian matrix at each of the equilibrium points of the system, and then finding the resulting eigenvalues, the equilibria can be categorized. Then the behavior of the system in the neighborhood of each equilibrium point can be qualitatively determined, (or even quantitatively determined, in some instances ...

  5. State-space representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State-space_representation

    Stability and natural response characteristics of a continuous-time LTI system (i.e., linear with matrices that are constant with respect to time) can be studied from the eigenvalues of the matrix . The stability of a time-invariant state-space model can be determined by looking at the system's transfer function in factored form.

  6. Lax equivalence theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lax_equivalence_theorem

    Stability in this context means that a matrix norm of the matrix used in the iteration is at most unity, called (practical) Lax–Richtmyer stability. [2] Often a von Neumann stability analysis is substituted for convenience, although von Neumann stability only implies Lax–Richtmyer stability in certain cases. This theorem is due to Peter Lax.

  7. Stable polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_polynomial

    A linear system is BIBO stable if its characteristic polynomial is stable. The denominator is required to be Hurwitz stable if the system is in continuous-time and Schur stable if it is in discrete-time. In practice, stability is determined by applying any one of several stability criteria.

  8. Stability (probability) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_(probability)

    The counterpart of the stable distribution in this case is the geometric stable distribution Max-stability : here the operation is to take the maximum of a number of random variables. The counterpart of the stable distribution in this case is the generalized extreme value distribution , and the theory for this case is dealt with as extreme ...

  9. Stable distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_distribution

    Let X 1 and X 2 be independent realizations of a random variable X. Then X is said to be stable if for any constants a > 0 and b > 0 the random variable aX 1 + bX 2 has the same distribution as cX + d for some constants c > 0 and d. The distribution is said to be strictly stable if this holds with d = 0. [7]
