Properties
- The Routh-Hurwitz theorem provides an algorithm for determining if a given polynomial is Hurwitz stable.
- To test if a given polynomial P (of degree d) is Schur stable, it suffices to apply this theorem to the transformed polynomial
obtained after the Möbius transformation which maps the left half-plane to the open unit disc: P is Schur stable if and only if Q is Hurwitz stable.
- Necessary condition: a Hurwitz stable polynomial (with real coefficients) has coefficients of the same sign (either all positive or all negative).
- Sufficient condition: a polynomial with (real) coefficients such that:
is Schur stable.
- Product rule: Two polynomials f and g are stable (of the same type) if and only if the product fg is stable.

Famous quotes containing the word properties:
“A drop of water has the properties of the sea, but cannot exhibit a storm. There is beauty of a concert, as well as of a flute; strength of a host, as well as of a hero.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.”
—John Locke (16321704)
