Ensemble systems, pervasive in diverse scientific and engineering domains, pose challenges to existing control methods due to their massive scale and underactuated nature. This paper presents a dynamic moment approach to addressing…
In this paper we investigate a relaxed concept of controllability, known in the literature as herdability, namely the capability of a system to be driven towards the(interior of the) positive orthant. Specifically, we investigate…
Linear control theory is used to develop an improved localized control scheme for spatially extended chaotic systems, which is applied to a Coupled Map Lattice as an example. The optimal arrangement of the control sites is shown to depend…
For linear control systems, the usual state feedback stabilizability has two components: one is a continuous observation mode (i.e., to observe solutions continuously in time), and the other is a class of feedback laws (which is usually the…
We study the controllability of a coupled system of linear parabolic equations, with non-negativity constraint on the state. We establish two results of controllability to trajectories in large time: one for diagonal diffusion matrices with…
Symmetries are ubiquitous in network systems and have profound impacts on the observable dynamics. At the most fundamental level, many synchronization patterns are induced by underlying network symmetry, and a high degree of symmetry is…
In this letter, a new notion of stability is introduced, which is called triangular stability. A system is called triangularly stable if the norm of its state vector is bounded by a decreasing linear function of time such that its…

Temporal networks are such networks where nodes and interactions may appear and disappear at various time scales. With the evidence of ubiquity of temporal networks in our economy, nature and society, it's urgent and significant to focus on…
We analyze in detail the subtle yet critical differences between the structural controllability and observability of the triplet $(A,B,C)$ in the two cases that this is viewed as a linear dynamical network of interconnected nodes or as a a…
Controlling real-world networked systems, including ecological, biomedical, and engineered networks that exhibit higher-order interactions, remains challenging due to inherent nonlinearities and large system scales. Despite extensive…
In this paper, controllability of systems defined on graphs is discussed. We consider the problem of controllability of the network for a family of matrices carrying the structure of an underlying directed graph. A one-to-one correspondence…
The paper is devoted to the controllability problem for 3D compressible Euler system. The control is a finite-dimensional external force acting only on the velocity equation. We show that the velocity and density of the fluid are…
This paper focuses on proposing a general control framework for large-scale Boolean networks (\texttt{BNs}). Only by the network structure, the concept of structural controllability for \texttt{BNs} is formalized. A necessary and sufficient…
In this paper we explicitly calculate the control sets associated with a linear control system on the two dimensional solvable Lie group. We show that a linear control system of such kind admits exactly one control set or infinite control…
Engineered infrastructure systems pose inverse problems in which hidden states, unknown parameters, and subsystem couplings must be inferred from sparse and noisy measurements. These problems are difficult because physical subsystems are…
