Abstract

We construct a new family of linearizations of rational matrices R(λ)R(\lambda) written in the general form R(λ)=D(λ)+C(λ)A(λ)1B(λ)R(\lambda)= D(\lambda)+C(\lambda)A(\lambda)^{-1}B(\lambda), where D(λ)D(\lambda), C(λ)C(\lambda), B(λ)B(\lambda) and A(λ)A(\lambda) are polynomial matrices. Such representation always exists and are not unique. The new linearizations are constructed from linearizations of the polynomial matrices D(λ)D(\lambda) and A(λ)A(\lambda), where each of them can be represented in terms of any polynomial basis. In addition, we show how to recover eigenvectors, when R(λ)R(\lambda) is regular, and minimal bases and minimal indices, when R(λ)R(\lambda) is singular, from those of their linearizations in this family.
