Abstract :
A new algebraic criterion for positive realness of real rational functions which is formulated entirely in terms of the Routh scheme is presented. Due to the outstanding algebraic simplicity of the Routh algorithm, the criterion yields an efficient and completely recursive numerical procedure for testing nonnegativity (positivity) of real polynomials which is suitable for machine calculations.
