We discuss strategies to bring $H_\infty$-control techniques into play when the system dynamics are modeled by hyperbolic partial differential equations, or more generally, by systems with non-sectorial pole pattern.
Analyzing and controlling system entropy is a powerful tool for regulating predictability of control systems. Applications benefiting from such approaches range from reinforcement learning and data security to human-robot collaboration. In…

The dynamics of many important high-dimensional dynamical systems are both chaotic and complex, meaning that strong reducing hypotheses are required to understand the dynamics. The highly influential chaotic hypothesis of Gallavotti and…
