In this paper, we study the nearest stable matrix pair problem: given a square matrix pair $(E,A)$, minimize the Frobenius norm of $(\Delta_E,\Delta_A)$ such that $(E+\Delta_E,A+\Delta_A)$ is a stable matrix pair. We propose a reformulation…

In this paper, we consider the problem of computing the nearest stable matrix to an unstable one. We propose new algorithms to solve this problem based on a reformulation using linear dissipative Hamiltonian systems: we show that a matrix…
We study the possibility of enhancing the stationary entanglement achievable with two-qubit dissipating into a common environment by means of feedback. We contrast the effect of Markovian with Bayesian feedback and show that, depending on…
In this paper, we characterize the set of static-state feedbacks that stabilize a given continuous linear-time invariant system pair using dissipative Hamiltonian matrices. This characterization results in a parametrization of feedbacks in…
Let K be an infinite field and denote by H(n,K) the family of pairs (A,B) of commuting nilpotent n by n matrices with entries in K. There has been substantial recent study of the connection between H(n,K) and the fibre H[n] of the punctual…

We work in the space of $m$-by-$n$ real matrices with the Frobenius inner product. Consider the following Problem: Given an m-by-n real matrix A and a positive integer k, find the m-by-n matrix with rank k that is closest to A. I discuss a…

We study the characterization of several distance problems for linear differential-algebraic systems with dissipative Hamiltonian structure. Since all models are only approximations of reality and data are always inaccurate, it is an…
We study the correction of errors intervening in two-qubit dissipating into their own environments. This is done by resorting to local feedback actions with the aim of preserving as much as possible the initial amount of entanglement.…
We study the scattering of photons propagating in a semi-infinite waveguide terminated by a mirror and interacting with a quantum emitter. This paradigm constitutes an example of coherent quantum feedback, where light emitted towards the…
For a given set $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{C}$, a matrix pair $(E,A)$ is called $\Omega$-admissible if it is regular, impulse-free and its eigenvalues lie inside the region $\Omega$. In this paper, we provide a dissipative Hamiltonian…
We address the feedback design problem for switched linear systems. In particular we aim to design a switched state-feedback such that the resulting closed-loop subsystems share the same eigenstructure. To this effect we formulate and…
We describe an algorithm for sampling a low-rank random matrix $Q$ that best approximates a fixed target matrix $P\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times m}$ in the following sense: $Q$ is unbiased, i.e., $\mathbb{E}[Q] = P$; $\mathsf{rank}(Q)\leq r$; and…
Quantum dissipation is studied for a discrete system that linearly interacts with a reservoir of harmonic oscillators at thermal equilibrium. Initial correlations between system and reservoir are assumed to be absent. The dissipative…
We consider the effects of strong dissipation in quantum systems with a notion of locality, which induces a hierarchy of many-body relaxation timescales as shown in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 124, 100604 (2020)]. If the strength of the dissipation…
