This paper proposes novel approaches for designing control Lyapunov functions (CLFs) for constrained linear systems. We leverage recent configuration-constrained polyhedral computing techniques to devise piecewise affine convex CLFs.…
We consider local-global principles for torsors under linear algebraic groups, over function fields of curves over complete discretely valued fields. The obstruction to such a principle is a version of the Tate-Shafarevich group; and for…
The geometry of a ball within a Riemannian manifold is coarsely controlled if it has a lower bound on its Ricci curvature and a positive lower bound on its volume. We prove that such coarse local geometric control must persist for a…
We prove that the multidimensional Schr\"odinger equation is exactly controllable in infinite time near any point which is a finite linear combination of eigenfunctions of the Schr\"odinger operator. We prove that, generically with respect…
There are two established ways to introduce geometric control in the category of free modules---the bounded control and the continuous control at infinity. Both types of control can be generalized to arbitrary modules over a noetherian ring…
This work investigates both local null controllability and large time null controllability for a class of complete Ladyzhenskaya Boussinesq systems, where the controls are distributed and supported on small subsets of the domain. The proof…
The paper is devoted to studying the 1D viscous Burgers equation controlled by an external force. It is assumed that the initial state is essentially bounded, with no decay condition at infinity, and the control is a trigonometric…
In this paper the theory of uniformly convex metric spaces is developed. These spaces exhibit a generalized convexity of the metric from a fixed point. Using a (nearly) uniform convexity property a simple proof of reflexivity is presented…
We investigate the small-time local controllability of systems in the vicinity of an equilibrium. Given a small time, an initial data and a final data close from the equilibrium, is it possible to find a control (a source term) that guides…
In a topological space, a family of continuous mappings is called universal if its action, in at least one element of the space, is dense. If the mappings are unitary or trace-preserving completely positive, the notion of universality is…
We show approximate controllability of Boussinesq flows in $\mathbb{T}^2 = \mathbb{R}^2 / 2\pi\mathbb{Z}^2$ driven by finite-dimensional controls that are supported in any fixed region $\omega \subset \mathbb{T}^2$. This addresses a…
We prove that the Schr\"odinger equation is approximately controllable in Sobolev spaces $H^s$, $s>0$ generically with respect to the potential. We give two applications of this result. First, in the case of one space dimension, combining…
The paper puts forward sufficient conditions for local controllability of a control dynamical system. The results obtained are meaningful in the case when the linear approximation to this system is not completely controllable. As a…
A new convenient method of describing flat convex compact sets is proposed. It generalizes classical trigonometric functions $\sin$ and $\cos$. Apparently, this method may be very useful for explicit description of solutions of optimal…
We consider the 2D incompressible Navier-Stokes equation in a rectangle with the usual no-slip boundary condition prescribed on the upper and lower boundaries. We prove that for any positive time, for any finite energy initial data, there…
Sufficient and necessary conditions are established for controllability of affine control systems where the control is constrained to a set whose convex hull contains the origin but is not necessarily, in contrast with previously known…
The regularity of limit spaces of Riemannian manifolds with L^p curvature bounds, $p > n/2$, is investigated under no apriori non-collapsing assumption. A regular subset, defined by a local volume growth condition for a limit measure, is…
We prove that the KdV equation on the circle remains exactly controllable in arbitrary time with localized control, for sufficiently small data, also in presence of quasi-linear perturbations, namely nonlinearities containing up to three…
In this paper, we consider the Stokes equations in a two-dimen- sional channel with periodic conditions in the direction of the channel. We establish null controllability of this system using a boundary control which acts on the normal…
Locally ordered spaces can be used as topological models of concurrent programs: the local order models the irreversibility of time during execution. Under certain conditions, one can even work with locally ordered manifolds. In this paper,…
