The dual algebraic Riccati equations and the set of all solutions of the discrete-time Riccati equation

Abstract

ABSTRACTIn this paper, two new pairs of dual continuous-time algebraic Riccati equations (CAREs) and dual discrete-time algebraic Riccati equations (DAREs) are proposed. The dual DAREs are first studied with some nonsingularity assumptions on the system matrix and the parameter matrix. Then, in the case of singular matrices, a generalised inverse is introduced to deal with the dual DARE problem. These dual AREs can easily lead us to an iterative procedure for finding the anti-stabilising solutions, especially to DARE, by means of that for the stabilising solutions. Furthermore, we provide the counterpart results on the set of all solutions to DARE inspired by the results for CARE. Two examples are presented to illustrate the theoretical results.
