Abstract
An output feedback matrix F will be said to dominate another, \bar{F} , if the cost for F is not higher for any initial condition than the cost for \bar{F} and if the cost is lower for some (perhaps all) initial conditions. The output feedback obtained by, for example, the Levine-Athans approach does not necessarily dominate the open-loop feedback \bar{F} = 0 , which could be unfortunate. Algorithms are given for finding feedbacks which dominate any given stabilizing feedback.
