Game-theoretic coupled riccati equations associated to controlled linear differential systems with jump markov perturbations

Abstract

In this paper we investigate several properties of the stabilizing solution of a class of systems of Riccati type differential equations with indefinite sign associated to controlled systems described by differential equations with Markovian jumping.

We show that the existence of a bounded on R ₊ and stabilizing solution for this class of systems of Riccati type differential equations is equivalent to the solvability of a control-theoretic problem, namely disturbance attenuation problem.

If the coefficients of the considered system are theta;-periodic functions then the stabilizing solution is also theta;-periodic and if the coefficients are asymptotic almost periodic functions, then the stabilizing solution is also asymptotic almost periodic and its almost periodic component is a stabilizing solution for a system of Riccati type differential equations defined on the whole real axis. One proves also that the existence of a stabilizing and bounded on R ₊ solution of a system of Riccati differential equations with indefinite sign is equivalent to the existence of a solution to a corresponding system of matrix inequalities. Finally, a minimality property of the stabilizing solution is derived.
