            Abstract : 
The two-block H∞ optimization problem is discussed, in which the most computationally demanding work is the computation of the optimal H∞ norm denoted by γ0. The problem of computing γ0 can be considered as that of finding a γ such that μ(γ) is equal to 1. Some new properties of μ(γ) are revealed and studied. Based on these properties and those found by C.-C. Chu and J. Doyle (1985) and Z.Z. Wang and J.B. Pearson (1984), a very fast computational algorithm for finding γ0 is proposed
