Learning a Markov Decision Process (MDP) from a fixed batch of trajectories is a non-trivial task whose outcome's quality depends on both the amount and the diversity of the sampled regions of the state-action space. Yet, many MDPs are…

Consider a $k$-valued network. Two kinds of (control) invariant subspaces, called state and dual invariant subspaces, are proposed, which are subspaces of state space and dual space respectively. Algorithms are presented to verify whether a…
An orthonormal basis matrix $X$ of a subspace ${\cal X}$ is known not to be unique, unless there are some kinds of normalization requirements. One of them is to require that $X^{\rm T}D$ is positive semi-definite, where $D$ is a constant…
Invariant subspaces of a matrix $A$ are considered which are obtained by truncation of a Jordan basis of a generalized eigenspace of $A$. We characterize those subspaces which are independent of the choice of the Jordan basis. An…
