“…Quite unexpectedly, the same condition was found to be necessary and sufficient to solve the problems dealt with in [32] for n arbitrary, p D 1, and in [34] for n and p arbitrary, where only fault-tolerant stabilization, rather than pole-placement, was required. Finally, it coincides as well with the solvability condition for the fault-tolerant stabilization problem stated for chains of discrete-time integrators in [33], where n is arbitrary and p D 1, and in [35], where n and p are arbitrary. On the other hand, the regulator (23), (25)-(29), (32), (33) does depend on n and p, and, as already noticed, its order is the least possible one for any n and p.…”
