A class K of structures is controlled if, for all cardinals lambda, the relation of L_{infty,lambda}-equivalence partitions K into a set of equivalence classes (as opposed to a proper class). We prove that the class of doubly transitive…
A linear constraint loop is specified by a system of linear inequalities that define the relation between the values of the program variables before and after a single execution of the loop body. In this paper we consider the problem of…
In this note we discuss the difficulty of verifying $\mathrm{L}^p$-admissibility for $p\neq 2$ -- that even manifests in the presence of a self-adjoint semigroup generator on a Hilbert space -- and survey tests for…
Structural controllability challenges arise from imprecise system modeling and system interconnections in large scale systems. In this paper, we study structural control of bilinear systems on the special Euclidean group. We employ graph…

We investigate the small-time local controllability of systems in the vicinity of an equilibrium. Given a small time, an initial data and a final data close from the equilibrium, is it possible to find a control (a source term) that guides…
We consider a linear nonlocal heat equation in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The non-locality is given by the presence of an integral kernel. We analyze the problem of controllability when…

It has recently been shown that the minimum energy solution of the control problem for a linear system produces a control trajectory that is nonlocal. An issue then arises when the dynamics represents a linearization of the underlying…
The positive-real and bounded-real lemmas solve two important linear-quadratic optimal control problems for passive and non-expansive systems, respectively. The lemmas assume controllability, yet a passive or non-expansive system can be…
