How can I solve this system with mathematica: <<LinearAlgebra`MatrixManipulation` A = {{-F1, 0, 0}, {0, -F2, 0}, {1, -1, 0}} Q = {{0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 1}} Z = ZeroMatrix[3] DSolve[{P'[t] + Transpose[A].P[t] + P[t].A + Q == Z, R'[t] + Transpose[A].R[t] + P[t] == Z, P[T]==Z, R[T]==Z}, {P, R}, t] where P and R are 3x3 matrix functions of t. Mathematica tells me: Solve::eqf: {{-F1, 0, 1}, <<2>>} . R[t] + <<2>> == {{0, <<2>>}, <<2>>} is not a well-formed equation. shouldn't this be possible without going the long way and defining P[t_]:={{p11[t], p12[t], p13[t]}, {p21[t], p22[t], p23[t]}, {p31[t],p32[t], p33[t]}} R[t_]:={{r11[t], r12[t], r13[t]}, {r21[t], r22[t], r23[t]}, {r31[t],r32[t], r33[t]}} Thanks, David Boily Centre for Intelligent Machines McGill University Montreal, Quebec
