Hautus lemma
In control theory and in particular when studying the properties of a linear time-invariant system in state space form, the Hautus lemma (after Malo L. J. Hautus), also commonly known as the Popov-Belevitch-Hautus test or PBH test,[1][2] can prove to be a powerful tool.
A special case of this result appeared first in 1963 in a paper by Elmer G. Gilbert,[1] and was later expanded to the current PHB test with contributions by Vasile M. Popov in 1966,[3][4] Vitold Belevitch in 1968,[5] and Malo Hautus in 1969,[5] who emphasized its applicability in proving results for linear time-invariant systems.
Statement
There exist multiple forms of the lemma:
Hautus Lemma for controllability
The Hautus lemma for controllability says that given a square matrix and a the following are equivalent:
- The pair is controllable
- For all it holds that
- For all that are eigenvalues of it holds that
Hautus Lemma for stabilizability
The Hautus lemma for stabilizability says that given a square matrix and a the following are equivalent:
- The pair is stabilizable
- For all that are eigenvalues of and for which it holds that
Hautus Lemma for observability
The Hautus lemma for observability says that given a square matrix and a the following are equivalent:
- The pair is observable.
- For all it holds that
- For all that are eigenvalues of it holds that
Hautus Lemma for detectability
The Hautus lemma for detectability says that given a square matrix and a the following are equivalent:
- The pair is detectable
- For all that are eigenvalues of and for which it holds that
