Diederich Hinrichsen, Anthony J. Pritchard Mathematical I Modelling, State Space Analysis, Stability and Robustness Series: Texts in Applied

Comprehensive coverage of an important field in applied mathematics The origins of this book go back more than twenty years when, funded by small grants from the European Union, the 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 2005, XVI, 804 p. 180 illus. 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 Printed book realistic about how long it would take us to complete the project.
