Abstract: | For an arbitrary n×n constant matrix A the two following facts are well known: • (1/n)Re(traceA)−maxj=1,…,nRe λj(A) 0; • If U is a unitary matrix, one can always find a skew-Hermitian matrix A so that U=eA. In this note we present the extension of these two facts to the context of linear time-varying dynamical systems As a by-product, this result suggests that, the notion of “slowly varying state-space systems”, commonly used in literature, is mathematically not natural to the problem of exponential stability. |
