that take some space of signals
into itself, and the standard concepts of time invariance, invertibility, and causality, play a basic role in the study of systems. In this note
is taken to be a certain very general linear space of
-vector-valued functions defined on
. We prove and discuss a theorem which shows, in particular, that in a setting very often of interest, the inverse
of a linear invertible time-invariant causal
is in fact causal.
