Assuming x
0
= 0, we can state that x(t) span
{
B, AB, A
2
B, . . .
}
. Let
us assume that A is diagonalizable, we can then write A = VV
1
. The
characteristic equation of A is given by
det (I A) =
n
+ p
n1
n1
+ + p
0
= f() = 0.

Notice that
f(A) = A

This means that A satises its own characterstic equation, also known as
the Cayley Hamilton theorem. We can now write
0 = A
n
+ p
n1
A
n1
+ + p
0
,
A
n
= (p
n1
A
n1

),
A

A = A

= (p

= (p

A
n1
+ + p

) + p
n2
A
n1
+ + p
0
A),
A
n+1
A
n
= . . .
One can proceed this pattern. The result is that every power of A can be
written as a linear combination of A to A
n1
. That is, k N, A
k
span
{
A, A
2
, . . . , A
n1
}
. This means that
A
k
B = (a
1
A+ a

A

+ + a
n1
A
n1
)B
= a
1
AB+ a
2
A

B+ + a

We can now conclude that
span
{
B, AB, A
2
B, . . .
}
= span
{
B, AB, . . . , A
n1
B
}
.
Therefore, if we want x(t) R
n
,
C =
[
B AB A
2
B . . . A
n1
B
]
should have full rank.
