Abstract

We investigate the property for an input-output system to map unimodal inputs to unimodal outputs. As a first step, we analyse this property for linear time-invariant (LTI) systems, static nonlinearities, and interconnections of those. In particular, we show how unimodality is closely related to the concepts of positivity, monotonicity, and total positivity.
