Riesz Basis Property of a Second-Order Hyperbolic System With Collocated Scalar Input–Output Bao-Zhu Guo and Yue-Hu Luo
Abstract—The closed-loop form of a second-order hyperbolic system with scalar collocated sensor/actuator is considered. The Riesz basis property of the system is verified for diagonal semigroups based on an abstract result of one rank perturbation of discrete-type operators in Hilbert spaces. A simplified proof for the abstract result is presented. Index Terms—Collocated input–output, perturbation of linear operators, Riesz basis, second-order system.
I. INTRODUCTION In the case of infinite-dimensional systems of the form x_ (t) = Ax(t), where A is the generator of a C0 -semigroup in a Hilbert space H , it is well-known that stability of the spectrum of A (i.e., real parts
x(t). However, if for instance, the eigenfunctions fn g1 1 which associate with eigenvalues fn g11 form a Riesz basis (a basis which is equivalent to an orthonormal basis in H , see, e.g., [19]), then the
are negative) does not imply any stability properties in the solutions
solution can be represented as
x(t) =
1 n=1
an e t n ;
8 x(0) =
1 n=1
where the control u(t) is a scalar function and k a constant. A : D(A)( X ) ! X is an unbounded positive selfadjoint operator in X . b is an element of the dual space [D(A1=2 )]0 of [D(A1=2 )], the graph space of D(A1=2 ). System (1) is a special case of the following generic infinite-dimensional system with one rank perturbation in a Hilbert space H :
x_ = Ax(t) + f (x(t))b

where is a discrete type operator (see the definition in Appendix) and an element of the dual space [D( 3 )]0 , where 3 denotes the adjoint of . is bounded if 2 H , otherwise, it is unbounded. f is a functional in H , which is usually -bounded. Two basic problems are discussed mostly in the literature: For fixed f or , find conditions so that a) the system (2) is a Riesz spectral system ([18]), that is, there is a sequence of generalized eigenvectors of system (2), which forms a Riesz basis for H ; b) the system (2) has specified eigenvalues. The second problem is usually referred to as pole assignment problem. Its significance is guaranteed by the first one because of the spectrum-determined growth condition which may be not valid for generic infinite dimensional systems. The first paper concerning these questions is contributed to the works of [15], where the problem is completely resolved for the case where both f and are bounded. In the past two decades, much effort has been concentrated along the same direction to the solution of these problems under variant conditions for example [6], [8] and [18], name just a few. Usually, these works are based on the basic assumption that either f or is bounded. In [11] and [12], although both f and are assumed to be unbounded, is assumed to be the infinitesimal generator of an analytic semigroup. This limits its applications to such systems as beam equation without consideration of viscous damping. In [9], the author developed a general result for the case where neither f nor is required to be bounded without the analyticity assumption the semigroup generated by . In this note, we shall apply this abstract result to answer the question a) for a special case of the system (1), namely, the diagonal semigroup case. It is shown that under some spectrum assumption of , the system (1) is a Riesz spectral system and hence the spectrum-determined growth condition holds true. The result can be applied directly to a connected Euler-Bernoulli beam equation under joint feedback control. However, it avoids the estimation for the eigenfunctions for the beam equation as was done in [4] and, more importantly, it can give a complete answer for some cases that appear to be impossible by the approach of [4]. The remaining of this note is organized as follows. In Section II, we give the Riesz basis property for the system (1). In the Appendix, we give an outline of a simplified proof of the abstract result, which was first obtained in [9].

In this case not only stability of the system is determined by the spectrum of the system operator, which is usually referred as spectrum-determined growth condition, but also the dynamic behavior of the system can be described by eigenpairs f(n ; n )g. Riesz basis is also the basis of so called method of moment, a powerful method in the study of controllability of hyperbolic systems; we refer the readers for earlier works on moment method to [13] and a recent systematic summary to [2]. General Riesz spectral systems are discussed in [14]. A nice recent result on the relation of exact controllability and Riesz basis can be found in [7]. The general Riesz basis theory is developed in the context of nonharmonic Fourier series, which is originated from works of Paley and Wiener in the 1930s and developed extensively later by many mathematicians. Earlier results–are summarized in [19], and a nice recent summary can be found in [2]. Unfortunately, verification of the Riesz basis generation in practice is challenging even for some extensively studied systems. We refer to [10], [20], [3], and [4] for the study of this problem for string and beam equations. Most of these particular examples can be put into the following form of controlled second order hyperbolic system with scalar collocated input–output in a Hilbert space X

For the definition of [D]-class operators we refer to Definition A1 in the Appendix. The proof of Theorem 3 will be split into several lemmas. The following lemma is straightforward. Lemma 1: Under the condition (15)

Therefore, A01 is compact. Let and be defined by (16). It is seen that

It is seen that b 2 [D(A1=2 )]0 if and only if 2 [D( )]0 . We say b is admissible if is admissible with respect to ([16]). Admissibility is a basic assumption for infinite dimensional control system (Ac ; Bc ) to be well-posed ([16]). When Bc is admissible, even if the control space is one dimensional, (Ac ; Bc ) can be exactly controllable ([7]) and the output feedback can make system be exponentially stable ([4]). This is contrast to the bounded control (see [14, Th. 4.1.5]). Theorem 2: Suppose (15) holds. Then i) b is admissible if and only if bn defined by (7) is uniformly bounded; ii) when b is admissible, system (16) is a regular linear system ([17]); iii) system (14) is exponentially stable if and only if ( ; ) is exactly controllable or equivalently

APPENDIX For the sake of completeness, we will give here an outline of a simplified proof of perturbation result which we cite for the proof of Theorem 3. The result stated below is a special case of [9, Th. 2.6]. Let us first introduce a definition of D -class operators. 1) Definition A1: A linear operator A in a Hilbert space H is called discrete type, or D -class in short, if there are Riesz basis fn g1 of H , a sequence of complex numbers fn g1 and a nonnegative integer N such that i) n!1 jn j 1, n 6 m , as n > N , m , n 6 m; ii) An n n , n > N ; iii) Aspanf1 ; 2 ; ; N g spanf1 ; 2 ; ; N g and A has spectrum fi g1N in spanf1 ; 2 ; ; N g, where spanf1 ; 2 ; ; N g denotes the linear subspace spanned by all fi g1N . It is well-known that A is a discrete operator in H (that is, its resolvent is compact) when it is of D -class. And for the D -class operator A, the semigroup eAt generated by A satisfies the spectrum-determined growth condition. Let A be a discrete operator in H . We denote by H01 the completion of H with respect to the norm

According to [16], H01 is equivalent to D A3 0 , the dual space of the graph space D A3 , where A3 is the adjoint operator of A. For any 2 A , R ; A 0 A 01 has a natural extension R ; A from H01 to H : R ; A x R ; A x for x 2 H . Certainly A can be extended to whole H by

We say f is A-bounded, if jf (x)j M kAxk for some M > 0 and all x 2 D(A). When b 2 H , Af;b = A + f (1)b, which has been studied
extensively in [8] and [18]. 2) Lemma A1: Let b 2 H01 . Suppose that f is A-bounded and there exists an 2 A (and hence for all 2 A ) such that R ; A b 2 D f . Then Af;b is a discrete operator in H . Moreover, 2 Af;b for any satisfying 0 f R ; A b 6 and
