zero pencil
[Z,U]=zeropen(Sl)
:Sl a linear system ( syslin list in state-space form [A,B,C,D]) : :Z matrix pencil Z=s*E-A : :U square orthogonal matrix :
Z= sE - F is the zero pencil of the linear system Sl with matrices [A,B,C,D]. Utility function.
With U row compression of [B;D] i.e, U*[B;D]=[0;*]; one has:
U*[-sI+A |B; [ Z |0;
C |D] = [ * |*]
The zeros of Z are the zeros of Sl.
