In 1970, B.A. Asner, Jr., proved that for a real quasi-stable polynomial, i.e., a polynomial whose zeros lie in the \emph{closed} left half-plane of the complex plane, its finite Hurwitz matrix is totally nonnegative, i.e., all its minors…
We prove a homological stabilization theorem for Hurwitz spaces: moduli spaces of branched covers of the complex projective line. This has the following arithmetic consequence: let l>2 be prime and A a finite abelian l-group. Then there…
In this paper we study planar hybrid systems composed by two stable linear systems, defined by Hurwitz matrices, in addition with a jump that can be a piecewise linear, a polynomial or an analytic function. We provide an explicit analytic…
We follow a polynomial approach to analyse strong stability of linear difference equations with rationally independent delays. Upon application of the Hermite stability criterion on the discrete-time homogeneous characteristic polynomial,…
Vandermonde matrices are well known. They have a number of interesting properties and play a role in (Lagrange) interpolation problems, partial fraction expansions, and finding solutions to linear ordinary differential equations, to mention…
A noncommutative polynomial is stable if it is nonsingular on all tuples of matrices whose imaginary parts are positive definite. In this paper a characterization of stable polynomials is given in terms of strongly stable linear matrix…
We show the homology of the Hurwitz space associated to an arbitrary finite rack stabilizes integrally in a suitable sense. We also compute the dominant part of its stable homology after inverting finitely many primes. This proves a…
We consider the autonomous dynamical system $x' = Ax$, with $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$. This linear dynamical system is said to be asymptotically stable if all of the eigenvalues of A lie in the open left-half of the complex plane. In…
This note addresses the question if and why the nuclear norm heuristic can recover an impulse response generated by a stable single-real-pole system, if elements of the upper-triangle of the associated Hankel matrix were given. Since the…
Gaussian radial basis functions can be an accurate basis for multivariate interpolation. In practise, high accuracies are often achieved in the flat limit where the interpolation matrix becomes increasingly ill-conditioned. Stable…
For any two n-th order polynomials a(s) and b(s), the Hurwitz stability of their convex combination is necessary and sufficient for the existence of a polynomial c(s) such that c(s)/a(s) and c(s)/b(s) are both strictly positive real.
We investigate stability conditions related to the existence of solutions of the Hull-Strominger system with prescribed balanced class. We build on recent work by the authors, where the Hull-Strominger system is recasted using non-Hermitian…
The concept of stability, originally introduced for polynomials, will be extended to apply to the class of entire functions. This generalization will be called Hurwitz stablility and the class of Hurwitz stable functions will serve as the…
We describe a wide class of polynomials, which is a natural generalization of Hurwitz stable polynomials. We also give a detailed account of so-called self-interlacing polynomials, which are dual to Hurwitz stable polynomials but have only…
We state two sufficient criteria for periodic oscillations in mass action systems. Neither criterion requires a computation of the Hurwitz determinants. Instead, both criteria exploit the linear algebra concepts of $D$-stability and…
For dispersive Hamiltonian partial differential equations of order 2N+1, N integer, there are two criteria to analyse to examine the stability of small-amplitude, periodic travelling wave solutions to high-frequency perturbations. The first…
The monotonicity and stability of difference schemes for, in general, hyperbolic systems of conservation laws with source terms are studied. The basic approach is to investigate the stability and monotonicity of a non-linear scheme in terms…
The Riccati equation method is used to establish some new stability criteria for systems of two linear first-order ordinary differential equations. It is shown that two of these criteria in the two dimensional case imply the Routh -…
Following a polynomial approach, many robust fixed-order controller design problems can be formulated as optimization problems whose set of feasible solutions is modelled by parametrized polynomial matrix inequalities (PMI). These…
We prove a version of the Bhargava-Kane-Lenstra-Poonen-Rains heuristics for Selmer groups of quadratic twist families of abelian varieties over global function fields. As a consequence, we derive a result towards the "minimalist conjecture"…
