A number of practically important imaging problems involve inverting the generalized Radon transform (GRT) $\mathcal R$ of a function $f$ in $\mathbb R^3$. On the other hand, not much is known about the spatial resolution of the…

Let $\mathcal R$ denote the generalized Radon transform (GRT), which integrates over a family of $N$-dimensional smooth submanifolds $\mathcal S_{\tilde y}\subset\mathcal U$, $1\le N\le n-1$, where an open set $\mathcal U\subset\mathbb R^n$…
The star transform is a generalized Radon transform mapping a function of two variables to its integrals along "star-shaped" trajectories, which consist of a finite number of rays emanating from a common vertex. Such operators appear in…
We study the problem of finding algebraically stable models for non-invertible holomorphic fixed point germs $f\colon (X,x_0)\to (X,x_0)$, where $X$ is a complex surface having $x_0$ as a normal singularity. We prove that as long as $x_0$…
We study a particular broken ray transform on the Euclidean unit square and establish injectivity and stability for $C_{0}^{2}$ perturbations of the constant unit weight. Given an open subset $E$ of the boundary, we measure the attenuation…
The statements on the BIBO stability of continuous-time convolution systems found in engineering textbooks are often either too vague (because of lack of hypotheses) or mathematically incorrect. What is more troubling is that they usually…
We address the conditions and design of controllers and observers for homogeneous networks of linear MIMO agents. We develop networked controllers and observers that ensure the stability of both the system state and the estimation error,…
The application of variational principles for analyzing problems in the physical sciences is widespread. Cantilever-like problems, where one end is fixed and the other end is free, have received less attention in terms of their stability…
We study the integral transform over a general family of broken rays in $\mathbb{R}^2$. It is natural for broken rays to have conjugate points, for example, when they are reflected from a curved boundary. If there are conjugate points, we…
