Analytical interpolation theory has several applications in systems and control. In particular, solutions of low degree, or more generally of low complexity, are of special interest since they allow for synthesis of simpler systems. The study of degree constrained analytic interpolation was initialized in the early 80's and during the past decade it has had significant progress. This thesis contributes in three different aspects to complexity constrained analytic interpolation: theory, numerical algorithms, and design paradigms. The contributions are closely related; shortcomings of previous design paradigms motivate development of the theory, which in turn calls for new robust and efficient numerical algorithms. Mainly two theoretical developments are studied in the thesis. Firstly, the spectral Kullback-Leibler approximation formulation is merged with simultaneous cepstral and covariance interpolation. For this formulation, both uniqueness of the solution, as well as smoothness with respect to data, is proven. Secondly, the theory is generalized to matrix-valued interpolation, but then only allowing for covariance-type interpolation conditions. Again, uniqueness and smoothness with respect to data is proven. Three algorithms are presented. Firstly, a refinement of a previous algorithm allowing for multiple as well as matrix-valued interpolation in an optimization framework is presented. Secondly, an algorithm capable of solving the boundary case, that is, with spectral zeros on the unit circle, is given. This also yields an inherent numerical robustness. Thirdly, a new algorithm treating the problem with both cepstral and covariance conditions is presented. Two design paradigms have sprung out of the complexity constrained analytical interpolation theory. Firstly, in robust control it enables low degree Hinf controller design. This is illustrated by a low degree controller design for a benchmark problem in MIMO sensitivity shaping. Also, a user support for the tuning of controllers within the design paradigm for the SISO case is presented. Secondly, in ARMA estimation it provides unique model estimates, which depend smoothly on the data as well as enables frequency weighting. For AR estimation, a covariance extension approach to frequency weighting is discussed, and an example is given as an illustration. For ARMA estimation, simultaneous cepstral and covariance matching is generalized to include prefiltering. An example indicates that this might yield asymptotically efficient estimates. / QC 20100928
