This paper introduces a new theoretical and computational framework for a data driven Koopman mode analysis of nonlinear dynamics. To alleviate the potential problem of ill-conditioned eigenvectors in the existing implementations of the Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) and the Extended Dynamic Mode Decomposition (EDMD), the new method introduces a Koopman-Schur decomposition that is entirely based on unitary transformations. The analysis in terms of the eigenvectors as modes of a Koopman operator compression is replaced with a modal decomposition in terms of a flag of invariant subspaces that correspond to selected eigenvalues. The main computational tool from the numerical linear algebra is the partial ordered Schur decomposition that provides convenient orthonormal bases for these subspaces. In the case of real data, a real Schur form is used and the computation is based on real orthogonal transformations. The new computational scheme is presented in the framework of the Extended DMD and the kernel trick is used.
