We analyze the dynamics of a quantum mechanical system in interaction with a reservoir when the initial state is not factorized. In the weak-coupling (van Hove) limit, the dynamics can be properly described in terms of a master equation,…

A seminal result in decentralized control is the development of fixed modes by Wang and Davison in 1973 - that plant modes which cannot be moved with a static decentralized controller cannot be moved by a dynamic one either, and that the…
We study the case when a bivariate Linear Partial Differential Operator (LPDO) of orders three or four has several different factorizations. We prove that a third-order bivariate LPDO has a first-order left and right factors such that their…

We study some factorization properties of the idealization $R \mathop{(\! + \! )} M$ of a module $M$ in a commutative ring $R$ which is not necessarily a domain. We show that $R \mathop{(\! + \! )} M$ is ACCP if and only if $R$ is ACCP and…
