LMI Properties and Applications in Systems, Stability, and Control Theory
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) commonly appear in systems, stability, and control applications. Many analysis and synthesis problems in these areas can be solved as feasibility or optimization problems subject to LMI constraints. Although most well-known LMI properties and manipulation tricks, such as the Schur complement and the congruence transformation, can be found in standard references, many useful LMI properties are scattered throughout the literature. The purpose of this document is to collect and organize properties, tricks, and applications related to LMIs from a number of references together in a single document. In this sense, the document can be thought of as an "LMI encyclopedia" or "LMI cookbook." Proofs of the properties presented in this document are not included when they can be found in the cited references in the interest of brevity. Illustrative examples are included whenever necessary to fully explain a certain property. Multiple equivalent forms of LMIs are often presented to give the reader a choice of which form may be best suited for a particular problem at hand. The equivalency of some of the LMIs in this document may be straightforward to more experienced readers, but the authors believe that some readers may benefit from the presentation of multiple equivalent LMIs.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
