Decoupling of Abstract DAEs
Abstract
We consider linear and time-invariant abstract differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) which are equations of the form E (t) = Ax (t) + f (t), x (0) = x0. x (·) and f (·) are functions with values in Hilbert spaces X and Z and the operator E: X → Z is assumed to be bounded, whereas A is closed and defined on some dense subspace D (A). Motivated by the Kronecker normal form for the finite dimensional case, the decoupling of abstract DAEs is investigated. (© 2006 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
