Abstract: Maximal monotonicity is explored as a generalization of the linear theory of passivity, aiming at an algorithmic input/output analysis of physical models. The theory is developed for maximal monotone one-port circuits, formed by the series and parallel interconnection of basic elements. These circuits generalize passive linear, time-invariant (LTI) transfer functions. Periodic input signals are shown to be mapped to periodic output signals, and these input–output behaviors can be efficiently computed using a maximal monotone splitting algorithm, which decomposes the computation according to the circuit topology. A new splitting algorithm is presented, which applies to any monotone one-port circuit defined as a port interconnection of monotone elements.
