In this paper, we explore the interplay between Predictive Control and closed-loop optimality, spanning from Model Predictive Control to Data-Driven Predictive Control. Predictive Control in general relies on some form of prediction scheme…

Let $\mathcal{F} $ be a pointwise almost periodic decomposition of a compact metrizable space $X$. Then $\mathcal{F} $ is $R$-closed if and only if $\hat{\mathcal{F}} $ is usc. Moreover, if there is a finite index normal subgroup $H$ of an…
We are concerned about the controllability of a general linear hyperbolic system of the form $\partial_t w (t, x) = \Sigma(x) \partial_x w (t, x) + \gamma C(x) w(t, x) $ ($\gamma \in \mR$) in one space dimension using boundary controls on…
