We study control systems invariant under a Lie group with application to the problem of nonlinear trajectory planning. A theory of symmetry reduction of exterior differential systems is employed to demonstrate how symmetry reduction and…
We consider nonlinear scalar-input differential control systems in the vicinity of an equilibrium. When the linearized system at the equilibrium is controllable, the nonlinear system is smoothly small-time locally controllable, i.e.,…
Consider an effective Hamiltonian torus action $T\times M \to M$ on a topologically twisted,generalized complex manifold $M$ of dimension $2n$. We prove that the $rank(T) \leq n-2$ and that the topological twisting survives Hamiltonian…
This is a survey article, from the viewpoint of the completeness of the Marsden- Weinstein reduction, to introduce briefly some recent developments of the symmetric reductions and Hamilton-Jacobi theory of the regular controlled Hamiltonian…
In this paper we develop the theory of {\it polymorphisms} of measure spaces, which is a generalization of the theory of measure-preserving transformations; we describe the main notions and discuss relations to the theory of Markov…
Non-Hermiticity has emerged as a new paradigm for controlling coupled-mode systems in ways that cannot be achieved with conventional techniques. One aspect of this control that has received considerable attention recently is the encircling…
To handle the control difficulties caused by high-order dynamics, a control structure based on fractional order [proportional integral] (PI) controller and fractional order Smith-like predictor for a class of high order systems in the type…
A generalized-homology bordism-theory is constructed, such that for certain manifold homotopy stratified sets (MHSS; Quinn-spaces) homeomorphism-invariant geometric fundamental-classes exist. The construction combines three ideas: Firstly,…
Topological phases of matter are often understood and predicted with the help of crystal symmetries, although they don't rely on them to exist. In this chapter we review how topological phases have been recently shown to emerge in amorphous…
For a group $G$, we construct a quasi morphism from its left orderings and the map from the space of left orderings to the second bounded cohomology. We show that these maps reflect various properties of the group orderings.
A geometric setup for control theory is presented. The argument is developed through the study of the extremals of action functionals defined on piecewise differentiable curves, in the presence of differentiable non-holonomic constraints.…
In this paper we study, from a variational and geometrical point of view, second-order variational problems on Lie groupoids and the construction of variational integrators for optimal control problems. First, we develop variational…
In this paper, we study under which conditions the trajectories of a mechanical control system can track any curve on the configuration manifold. We focus on systems that can be represented as forced affine connection control systems and we…
The paper addresses an existence problem for infinite horizon optimal control when the system under control is exponentially stabilizable or stable. Classes of nonlinear control systems for which infinite horizon optimal controls exist are…
In this paper, we study the controllability of the two-dimensional relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system in a torus, by means of an interior control. We give two types of results. With the geometric control condition on the control set, we…
The model reduction problem for semistable infinite-dimensional control systems is studied in this paper. In relation to these systems, we study an object we call the semistability Gramian, which serves as a generalization of the ordinary…
Let $G$ be a 1-connected, almost-simple Lie group over a local field and $\mathcal{S}$ a subsemigroup of $G$ with non-empty interior. The action of the regular hyperbolic elements in the interior of $\mathcal{S}$ on the flag manifold $G/P$…
There exist many examples of systems which have some symmetries, and which one may monitor with symmetry preserving controls. Since symmetries are preserved along the evolution, full controllability is not possible, and controllability has…
Following Part~I, we consider a class of reversible systems and study bifurcations of homoclinic orbits to hyperbolic saddle equilibria. Here we concentrate on the case in which homoclinic orbits are symmetric, so that only one control…
This paper investigates a family of dynamical systems arising from an evolutionary re-interpretation of certain optimal control and optimization problems. We focus particularly on the application in image registration of the theory of…
