Here and in a follow-on paper, we consider a simple control problem in which the underlying dynamics depend on a parameter $a$ that is unknown and must be learned. In this paper, we assume that $a$ is bounded, i.e., that $|a| \le…
We consider a system that is exactly controllable. For given initial state, terminal state and objective function, an optimal control is often well-defined. Such an optimal control has the disadvantage that although it works perfectly well…

We study a control-constrained optimal control problem governed by a semilinear elliptic equation. The control acts in a bilinear way on the boundary, and can be interpreted as a heat transfer coefficient. A detailed study of the state…

We prove a general existence result in stochastic optimal control in discrete time where controls take values in conditional metric spaces, and depend on the current state and the information of past decisions through the evolution of a…
We study a very general class of first-order linear hyperbolic systems that both become weakly hyperbolic and contain lower-order coefficients that blow up at a single time $t = 0$. In "critical" weakly hyperbolic settings, it is well-known…
In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for the semilinear beam equation in the subcritical case. We prove an asymptotic stability result of self-similar solutions of the associated parabolic problem. The proof of our results are…
A nonlinear control system is said to be weakly contractive in the control if the flow that it generates is non-expanding (in the sense that the distance between two trajectories is a non-increasing function of time) for some fixed…

This paper deals with the development and analysis of novel time-optimal point-to-point model predictive control concepts for nonlinear systems. Recent approaches in the literature apply a time transformation, however, which do not maintain…
