Abstract

We start by studying the model reduction problem from a rational interpolation perspective and revisit some key findings such as the optimal rational interpolation in the H2-norm and rational-interpolants from data using the Loewner framework. We then study the concept of the Barycentric form of rational interpolants and show extensions to parametric dynamical systems.  If time allows, we  will also visit  nonlinear eigenvalue problems (NLEVPs), more specifically the contour-based techniques for NLEVPs and show that these techniques for NLEVPs have strong connections to the classical realization theory such as the Ho-Kalman algorithm. Once this connection is established, we then develop, using the Loewner-based rational interpolation theory, a systems-theory inspired  framework for solving NLEVPs.
