A fast algorithm for the computation of an upper bound on the mu-norm
A fast algorithm for the computation of the optimally frequency-dependent scaled H-infinity-norm of a finite-dimensional LTI system is presented. It is well known that this quantity is an upper bound to the "mu-norm"; furthermore, it was recently shown to play a special role in the context of slowly time-varying uncertainty. Numerical experimentation suggests that the algorithm generally converges quadratically.
