On output stabilizability of differential-algebraic equations (Q2154826)

The author studies output stabilizability of differential-algebraic systems. Two different notions of stability, an asymptotic one and one based on the \(\mathrm{L}^q\)-norm of the output are compared and shown be equivalent. To introduce the use of the main concepts of output injection and the Kalman observability decomposition, the author begins with a short proof of the result for the special case of ordinary differential equations. The latter can then be generalized to differential-algebraic equations and employed to prove the aforementioned equivalence.
