The sets of transfer matrices that satisfy specications are generally innite-
dimensional. In this chapter we consider our standard example described in
section 2.4 with an additional two-dimensional ane specication. This allows us
to visualize a two-dimensional \slice" through the various specications we have
encountered. The reader can directly see, for this example, that specications we
have claimed are convex are indeed convex.
Recall from section 2.4 that (a), (b), and (c) are the closed-loop transfer ma-

to allow us to plot two-dimensional \slices" through other (useful) speci cations.

a closed-loop transfer matrix for example, (a) corresponds to the point = 1,

Each point in gure 11.1 also corresponds to a particular controller, although we
will not usually be concerned with the controller itself. The controller that realizes
