A system described by a system of linear differential equations of \(n\)-th order, can be equivalently be described by \(n\) first order differential equations. Which can be compactly written in matrix form as
\begin{align*}
\dot{\vec{x}} &= \mx{A}\vec{x} + \mx{B}\vec{u} \\
\vec{y} &= \mx{C}\vec{x} + \mx{D}\vec{u}.
\end{align*}
If the system is time \emph{variant} the matrices are functions of time.

\subsection{Canonical representations}
\subsubsection{Controllable form}
\subsubsection{Observable form}
\subsubsection{Diagonalized or Jordan form}
The Jordan form diagonalizes the \(\mx{A}\) matrix. Thus we need to solve the eigenvalue problem \((\mx{A} - \lambda\mx{I})\vec{x} = \vec{0}\), which can be done by setting \(\det(\mx{A} -\lambda\mx{I}) = 0\), and solving the characteristic polynomial. The eigenvectors are obtained by plugging the \(\lambda\) values back into \((\mx{A} - \lambda\mx{I})\vec{x} = \vec{0}\), and solving an overdetermined system of equations.
The transformation to the eigenbasis \(\mx{T}\), obtained by using the eigenvector as columns of a matrix \(\mx{T} = \begin{bmatrix} \vec{v}_1 & \cdots & \vec{v}_n \end{bmatrix}\), is then used to compute
\begin{align*}
\mx{\hat{A}} & = \mx{T}\mx{A}\mx{T^{-1}} &
\mx{\hat{B}} & = \mx{T}\mx{B} \\
\mx{\hat{C}} & = \mx{C}\mx{T^{-1}} &
\mx{\hat{D}} & = \mx{D}.
\end{align*}
In this form the system is described with \(n\) decoupled states \(\xi_i\) with the equations \(\dot{\vec{\xi}} = \mx{\hat{A}}\vec{\xi} + \mx{\hat{B}}\vec{u}\) and \(\vec{y} = \mx{\hat{C}}\vec{\xi} + \mx{\hat{D}} \vec{u}\).
\subsection{Stability}
If \emph{all} eigenvalues \(\lambda\) are not zero and have a positive real part the system is asymptotically \emph{stable}. If \emph{all} eigenvalues are not zero but \emph{at least one} has a negative real part the system is \emph{unstable}.
\subsection{Controllability}
The state controllability condition implies that it is possible --- by admissible inputs --- to steer the states from any initial value to any final value within some finite time window. A LTI state space model is controllable iff the matrix
\[
\mx{Q} = \begin{bmatrix}
\mx{B} & \mx{A}\mx{B} & \mx{A}^2\mx{B} \cdots \mx{A}^{n-1}\mx{B}
\end{bmatrix}
\]
has \(\rank\mx{Q} = n\). Or equivalently for a SISO system, if all components of the vector \(\mx{\hat{C}}_{i} \neq 0\).
\subsection{Observability}
Observability is a measure for how well internal states of a system can be inferred by knowledge of its external outputs. A LTI state space mode is observable iff the matrix
\[
\mx{Q}^t = \begin{bmatrix}
\mx{C} & \mx{C}\mx{A} & \cdots & \mx{C}\mx{A}^{n-1}
\end{bmatrix}
\]
has \(\rank\mx{Q} = n\).
