Rapid stabilization of general linear systems with F-equivalence

We study the rapid stabilization of general linear systems, when the differential operator A has a Riesz basis of eigenvectors. We find simple sufficient conditions for the rapid stabilization and the construction of a relatively explicit feedback operator. We use an F-equivalence approach relying on Fredholm transformation to show a stronger result: under these sufficient conditions the system is equivalent to a simple exponentially stable system, with arbitrarily large decay rate. In particular, our conditions improve the existing conditions of rapid stabilization for non-parabolic operators such as skew-adjoint systems.
