Mathematical Control Theory: Deterministic Finite Dimensional Systems (1998)

This textbook introduces the key concepts and results of Control and System Theory. Unique in its emphasis on foundational aspects, it is geared toward mathematically advanced undergraduate or graduate students. It is also suitable for a second engineering course in control, which goes beyond the classical frequency domain and state-space material. The choice of topics, together with detailed end-of-chapter links to the bibliography, makes this a useful research reference as well.
