Abstract

This paper treats questions of duality for time-varying linear systems defined on a locally finite partially ordered time set. Difference equations are studied by considering the state space of the system as a module over the incidence algebra of the poset, and dual systems can be described abstractly. The resulting dual system gives the evolution equations (in reverse time) for the Lagrange multipliers associated to standard linear-quadratic optimal control problems.
