Most research has focused on invariances with respect to time-independent pointwise transformations like translational-invariance (u(t) -&gt; u(t) + p, p in R) or scale-invariance (u(t) -&gt; pu(t), p in R&gt;0). In this article, we introduce the concept of s0-invariances with respect to continuous input transformations exponentially growing/decaying over time. We show that s0-invariant systems not only encompass linear time-invariant (LTI) systems with transfer functions having an irreducible zero at s0 in R, but also that the input/output relationship of nonlinear s0-invariant systems possesses properties well known from their linear counterparts. Furthermore, we extend the concept of s0-invariances to second- and higher-order s0-invariances, corresponding to invariances with respect to transformations of the time-derivatives of the input, and encompassing LTI systems with zeros of multiplicity two or higher. Finally, we show that nth-order 0-invariant systems realize – under mild conditions – nth-order nonlinear differential operators: when excited by an input of a characteristic functional form, the system’s output converges to a constant value only depending on the nth (nonlinear) derivative of the input.","lang":"eng"}],"date_published":"2017-06-01T00:00:00Z","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0005-1098"]},"oa_version":"Published Version","oa":1,"author":[{"id":"29E0800A-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Lang","full_name":"Lang, Moritz","first_name":"Moritz"},{"first_name":"Eduardo","full_name":"Sontag, Eduardo","last_name":"Sontag"}],"article_processing_charge":"Yes (in subscription journal)","isi":1,"day":"01","scopus_import":"1","type":"journal_article","publication":"Automatica","external_id":{"isi":["000403513900006"]},"_id":"1007","status":"public","volume":"81C"}
