We address stability of a class of Markovian discrete-time stochastic hybrid systems. This class of systems is characterized by the state-space of the system being partitioned into a safe or target set and its exterior, and the dynamics of…
We employ the recent performance-barrier event-triggered control (P-ETC) for achieving global exponential convergence of a class of reaction-diffusion PDEs via PDE backstepping control. Rather than insisting on a strictly monotonic decrease…
A new framework for adaptive regulation to invariant sets is proposed. Reaching the target dynamics (invariant set) is to be ensured by state feedback while adaptation to parametric uncertainties is provided by additional adaptation…
We derive a saturated feedback control, which locally stabilizes a linear reaction-diffusion equation. In contrast to most other works on this topic, we do not assume the Lyapunov stability of the uncontrolled system and consider general…
We consider the p-system in Eulerian coordinates on a star-shaped network. Under suitable transmission conditions at the junction and dissipative boundary conditions in the exterior vertices, we show that the entropy solutions of the system…
We introduce High-Relative Degree Stochastic Control Lyapunov functions and Barrier Functions as a means to ensure asymptotic stability of the system and incorporate state dependent high relative degree safety constraints on a non-linear…
In this paper, adaptive set-point regulation controllers for discrete-time nonlinear systems are constructed. The system to be controlled is assumed to have a parametric uncertainty, and an excitation signal is used in order to obtain the…
We present an event-triggered boundary control scheme for hyperbolic systems. The trigger condition is based on predictions of the state on determinate sets, where the control input is only updated if the predictions deviate from the…

Alberto Isidori's framework of geometric nonlinear control, and particularly of feedback linearization, is the inspiration behind PDE backstepping: apply a transfromation of the state to cast the plant into a canonical form, bring all the…
This paper presents a delay-adaptive boundary control scheme for a $2\times 2$ coupled linear hyperbolic PDE-ODE cascade system with an unknown and arbitrarily long input delay. To construct a nominal delay-compensated control law, assuming…
In this article, we investigate the BV stability of $2\times 2$ hyperbolic systems of conservation laws with strictly positive velocities under dissipative boundary conditions. More precisely, we derive sufficient conditions guaranteeing…
In hyperbolic dynamics, a well-known result is: every hyperbolic Lyapunov stable set, is attracting; it's natural to wonder if this result is maintained in the sectional-hyperbolic dynamics. This question is still open, although some…
This paper develops an extension of infinite-dimensional backstepping method for parabolic and hyperbolic systems in one spatial dimension with two actuators. Typically, PDE backstepping is applied in 1-D domains with an actuator at one…
Lyapunov functions with exponential weights have been used successfully as a powerful tool for the stability analysis of hyperbolic systems of balance laws. In this paper we extend the class of weight functions to a family of hyperbolic…
To describe the dynamics of a size-structured population and its unstructured resource, we formulate bookkeeping equations in two different ways. The first, called the PDE formulation, is rather standard. It employs a first order partial…
We prove existence and uniqueness of global-in-time solutions in the $W^{-1,p}_D$-$W^{1,p}_D$-setting for abstract quasilinear parabolic PDEs with nonsmooth data and mixed boundary conditions, including a nonlinear source term with at most…
This tutorial provides an overview of the generalized Lyapunov method (GLM) for analyzing input-to-state stability (ISS) of partial differential equations (PDEs). We begin by revisiting the classical Lyapunov method and the standard…
Stability of retarded differential equations is closely related to the existence of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals. Even if a number of converse results have been reported regarding the existence of such functionals, there is a lack of…
We study hyperbolic systems of one-dimensional partial differential equations under general, possibly non-local boundary conditions. A large class of evolution equations, either on individual 1-dimensional intervals or on general networks,…
