The Hermann-Martin curve


Rosenthal, J (2005). The Hermann-Martin curve. In: Dayawansa, W P; Lindquist, A; Zhou, Y. New directions and applications in control theory. Berlin: Springer, 353-365.

Abstract

Every linear system can be naturally identified with a rational curve in a Grassmann variety. The associated curve is often referred to as the Hermann-Martin curve of the system. “This article explains this crucial link between systems theory and geometry. The geometric translation
also provides important tools when studying control design problems. In the second part of the article, it is shown howit is possible to tackle some important control design problems by geometric means.
