A generalized sylvester equation: a criterion for structural staility of triples of matrices (Q4253149)

Structural stability of triples of rectangular matrices \(M_{n}\) \((\mathbb{C}) \times\) \(M_{n \times m}\) \((\mathbb{C}) \times\) \(M_{p \times n}\) \((\mathbb{C})\) with complex entries and dimensions \(n, m, p\) is studied. This analysis is made under the equivalence relation characterized by elementary transformations of linear dynamical time-invariant systems, in terms of the rank of a matrix and in terms of the differentiability of a mapping \(\mathbb{T}\) which associates, for each triple \(t\), the tangent space to the stabilizer of \(t\) under the Lie group action. This tangent space can be characterized as the space of solutions of the generalized Sylvester equation. The condition for the triplet \(t\) to be structurally stable is given and necessary and sufficient conditions for the differentiability of the related families of target spaces to stabilizers \( \{\mathbb{T}(\varphi(x)) \}_{x \in X}\) are deduced.
