For many years it was believed that an unstable periodic orbit with an odd number of real Floquet multipliers greater than unity cannot be stabilized by the time-delayed feedback control mechanism of Pyragus. A recent paper by Fiedler et al…

We treat the periodic trajectory tracking problem: given a periodic trajectory of a control-affine, left-invariant driftless system in a compact and connected Lie group $G$ and an initial condition in $G$, find another trajectory of the…
