Abstract:
A procedure for design of singular determinant sequences of elements of monotonic systems described in Ref. [1] is proposed. The interaction of two sequences, $\bar{\alpha}_{-}$ and $\bar{\alpha}_+$ are studied and the resultis formulated as a duality theorem. This is used to describe way to narrow the region of search for extremal subsystems, or kernels of the monotonic systems and a search procedure is described.
