We show that the failure of the real-space RG method in the 1D tight-binding model is not intrinsic to the method as considered so far but depends on the choice of boundary conditions. For fixed BC's the failure does happen. For free BC's…

Enforcing multiple constraints based on the concept of control barrier functions (CBFs) is a remaining challenge because each of the CBFs requires a condition on the control inputs to be satisfied which may easily lead to infeasibility…
