Review text

The purpose of this paper is to provide an outline of the main properties of group behaviors for a system-theoretic audience. After a brief discussion on LTI (linear time-invariant) systems, the author introduces group codes and behaviors, and develops connections between convolutional coding theory and LTI system theory. Next, he turns to minimal state realizations for behaviors, showing that any group behavior has a well-defined, essentially unique minimal group state realization with the aid of the State Space Theorem. A discussion of controllability and observability is then presented, followed by an indepth discussion on duality (Pontryagin duality, sequence space duality, state space duality, duality of controllability and observability). The paper concludes with a section on generalized state realizations and some illustrative examples. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0911.00015].
