<math>===Linear Time Invariant Systems (LTI Systems)===
A linear time invariant system is one that is linear (superposition and proportionality apply) and one that doesn't change with time. For example a circuit with fixed capacitors, resistors, and inductors having an input and an output is linear and time invariant. If a capacitor changed value with time, then it would not be time invariant.
