Review text

One of the basic questions of modern linear control theory is to minimize the \(H^\infty\)-norm of a block matrix function over all possible entries in the upper left corner. This is a direct generalization of Nehari's problem in function theory in the unit disk. The author has previously investigated this optimization problem for a generic class of matrix valued functions, finding even superoptimal solutions, that is minimizers of the associated characteristic numbers, see \textit{V. V. Peller} and \textit{S. R. Treil} [J. Funct. Anal. 148, 191-228 (1997)]. The present note is a continuation of the cited paper. A natural system of axioms for a function space where the matrix to be optimized belong are found. Then it is proved by operator theory techniques (Hankel operators, factorization, etc.) that the superoptimal solution exists, and it is unique, in the same function space. The continuous dependence of the optimum value of the optimum solution is also studied.
