Are All Non-Linear Systems (Approx.) Bilinear,

Active / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA043851 |

Abstract:

There is a rumor going around in mathematical system theory circles that all non-linear systems are bilinear or nearly so. This note examines the case for such an assertion and finds it wanting and en passant, offers some comments on the current proliferation of mathematical literature on system theory.
