Consider the problem of covertly controlling a linear system. In this problem, Alice desires to control (stabilize or change the behavior of) a linear system, while keeping an observer, Willie, unable to decide if the system is indeed being…
The aim of this paper is to present an elementary computable theory of random variables, based on the approach to probability via valuations. The theory is based on a type of lower-measurable sets, which are controlled limits of open sets,…
The universality phenomenon asserts that the distribution of the eigenvalues of random matrix with i.i.d. zero mean, unit variance entries does not depend on the underlying structure of the random entries. For example, a plot of the…
We calculate the probability that random polynomial matrices over a finite field with certain structures are right prime or left prime, respectively. In particular, we give an asymptotic formula for the probability that finitely many…
We introduce a new class of large structured random matrices characterized by four fundamental properties which we discuss. We prove that this class is stable under matrix-valued and pointwise non-linear operations. We then formulate an…
In this paper, we study structural controllability of a linear time invariant (LTI) composite system consisting of several subsystems. We assume that the neighbourhood of each subsystem is unconstrained, i.e., any subsystem can interact…
We show that a bilinear control system is approximately controllable if and only if it is controllable in $\mathbb{R}^{n}\setminus\{0\}$. We approach this problem by looking at the foliation made by the orbits of the system, and by showing…
This note investigates the controllability of two unstable second-order systems that are coupled through a common input. These dynamics occur for different types of inverted-pendulum systems. Controllability is quantified by the volume of…

Motivated by the controllability/reachability problems for switched linear control systems and some classes of nonlinear (mechanical) control systems we address a related problem of existence of a cyclic vector for an associative (matrix)…
In this paper, we study the concept of approximate controllability of retarded network systems of neutral type. On one hand, we reformulate such systems as free-delay boundary control systems on product spaces. On the other hand, we use the…
This paper presents computational methods for families of linear systems depending on a parameter. Such a family is called ensemble controllable if for any family of parameter-dependent target states and any neighborhood of it there is a…
We construct a planar process that switches randomly between the flows of two linear systems built from two Hurwitz matrices (all eigenvalues have negative real parts). The goal here is to study the long time behaviour according to the…

In the paper, we introduce and address the problem of structural averaged controllability for linear ensemble systems. We provide examples highlighting the differences between this problem and others. In particular, we show that structural…
We say that a control system is locally controllable if the attainable set from any state $x$ contains an open neighborhood of $x$, while it is controllable if the attainable set from any state is the entire state manifold. We show in this…
