Some properties of an upper bound of mu

Gjerrit Meinsma, Yash Shrivastava and Minyue Fu
Abstract
A convex upper bound of the mixed structured singular value $\mu$ is analyzed. The upper bound is based on a multiplier method. It is simple, it can exploit low-rank properties and it is shown to be less conservative than the well-known $(D,G)$-scaling. A direct relationship with $(D,G)$-scaling is given. The upper bound can be modified to one that is continuous with an explicit Lipschitz constant.

Keywords: Mixed structured singular values, linear matrix inequalities, multipliers.
