Coplanar model states for applications of the coupled cluster method (CCM) to problems in quantum magnetism are those in which all spins lie in a plane, whereas three-dimensional (3D) model states are, by contrast, non-coplanar ones in…
This paper presents a nonlinear control design for highly underactuated balance robots, which possess more numbers of unactuated degree-of-freedom (DOF) than actuated ones. To address the challenge of simultaneously trajectory tracking of…

Most rigid formation controllers reported in the literature aim to only stabilize a rigid formation shape, while the formation orientation is not controlled. This paper studies the problem of controlling rigid formations with prescribed…
We investigate a class of higher-order nonlinear dispersive equations posed on the circle, subject to additive forcing by a finite-dimensional control. Our main objective is to establish approximate controllability by using the…
The Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR), which is arguably the most classical problem in control theory, was recently related to kernel methods in (Aubin-Frankowski, SICON, 2021) for finite dimensional systems. We show that this result extends…
We consider discrete nonlinear hyperbolic equations on quad-graphs, in particular on the square lattice. The fields are associated to the vertices and an equation Q(x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4)=0 relates four fields at one quad. Integrability of…

Control-based continuation (CBC) is a general and systematic method to explore the dynamic response of a physical system and perform bifurcation analysis directly during experimental tests. Although CBC has been successfully demonstrated on…
In formation control, an ensemble of autonomous agents is required to stabilize at a given configuration in the plane, doing so while agents are allowed to observe only a subset of the ensemble. As such, formation control provides a rich…
We propose and analyze a scheme for realizing tunable coherent perfect absorption (CPA) and reflection (CPR) in a three-level $\Lambda$-type atom-cavity system. With EIT-type interference induced by a coherent coupling laser, the scheme…
Model-based manipulation of deformable objects has traditionally dealt with objects while neglecting their dynamics, thus mostly focusing on very lightweight objects at steady state. At the same time, soft robotic research has made…
We show how to divide a coupled multi-spin system into a small subset of ``active'' spins that evolve under chemical shift or scalar coupling operators, and a larger subset of ``spectator'' spins which are returned to their initial states,…
Pauli-based computation (PBC) is a universal model for quantum computation with qubits where the input state is a magic (resource) state and the computation is driven by a sequence of adaptively chosen and compatible multiqubit Pauli…
We use radial basis functions to model the input--output response of an electronic device. A new methodology for producing models that accuratly describe the response of the device over a wide range of operating points is introduced. A key…
