This paper proposes a new approach to describe the stability of linear time-invariant systems via the torsion $\tau(t)$ of the state trajectory. For a system $\dot{r}(t)=Ar(t)$ where $A$ is invertible, we show that (1) if there exists a…
Under a regularity assumption we prove that reachability in fixed time for nonlinear control systems is robust under control sampling.

In this paper, we consider the analysis and control of continuous-time nonlinear systems to ensure universal shifted stability and performance, i.e., stability and performance w.r.t. each forced equilibrium point of the system. This…
Many physical systems are inherently time-varying in nature. When these systems are linearized around a trajectory, generally, the resulting system is Linear Time-Varying (LTV). LTV systems describe an important class of linear systems and…
In this paper, we address the problem of globally stabilizing a linear time-invariant (LTI) system by means of a static feedback law whose amplitude and successive time derivatives, up to a prescribed order $p$, are bounded by arbitrary…
We consider the problem of boundary control for a vibrating string with $N$ interior point masses. We assume the control is at the left end, and the string is fixed at the right end. Singularities in waves are "smoothed" out to one order as…

We present stability conditions for deterministic time-varying nonlinear discrete-time systems whose inputs aim to minimize an infinite-horizon time-dependent cost. Global asymptotic and exponential stability properties for general…
This article proposes an approach to design output-feedback controllers for unknown continuous-time linear time-invariant systems using only input-output data from a single experiment. To address the lack of state and derivative…
We construct a non-topological string solution for a supersymmetric gauge theory with $SU(2)\times U(1)$ gauge symmetry which is spontaneously broken to $U(1)$ by developing the vacuum expectation value of two doublet Higgses. It is a…
A general controller scheme for stabilizing a non-linear system, which has its origin from the linear system theory, is proposed in this paper. The proposed controller can stabilize the non-linear system subjected to initial conditions. An…
We demonstrate that the spectrum of any consistent string theory in $D$ dimensions must satisfy a number of supertrace constraints: $ Str~M^{2n}=0 $ for $0 \leq n < D/2-1$, integer $n$. These results hold for a large class of string…
This paper addresses the data-driven structured controller design problem for continuous-time linear time-invariant (LTI) systems. We consider three control objectives, including stabilization, $H_2$ performance, and $H_\infty$ performance.…
