Koopman Lifted Finite Memory Identification via Truncated Grunwald Letnikov Kernels

Navid Mojahed, Mahdis Rabbani, Shima Nazari

Abstract

We propose a data-driven linear modeling framework for controlled nonlinear hereditary systems that combines Koopman lifting with a truncated Grunwald-Letnikov memory term. The key idea is to model nonlinear state dependence through a lifted observable representation while imposing history dependence directly in the lifted coordinates through fixed fractional-difference weights. This preserves linearity in the lifted state-transition and input matrices, yielding a memory-compensated regression that can be identified from input-state data by least squares and extending standard Koopman-based identification beyond the Markovian setting. We further derive an equivalent augmented Markovian realization by stacking a finite window of lifted states, thereby rewriting the finite-memory recursion as a standard discrete-time linear state-space model. Numerical experiments on a nonlinear hereditary benchmark with a non-Grunwald-Letnikov Prony-series ground-truth kernel demonstrate improved multi-step open-loop prediction accuracy relative to memoryless Koopman and non-lifted state-space baselines.

Key Result

Theorem 1

Suppose $\Omega$ has full row rank and satisfies $\Omega\Omega^\top \succeq \mu I_{p+m}$ for some $\mu>0$. If the stacked regression satisfies eq:stacked, then the least-squares estimator $\hat{\Theta}=\mathbf{Y}\Omega^\dagger$ obeys and therefore
