Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for Characteristic Transfer Function Matrices

There exist several forms of transfer function descriptions for multivariable LTI systems. We treat transfer function matrix with characteristic polynomial as its common denominator named Characteristic Transfer-function Matrices (CTM). First, we clarify necessary and sufficient conditions of CTM, then, we show some related lemmas. These interpretations not only offer deeper explanations but they also provide ways for calculations of all possible transfer matrices, system zeros, and inverse polynomial matrices.
