It is well-known that when a positively expansive dynamical system is invertible then its underlying space is finite. C.Morales has introduced a decade ago a natural way to generalize positive expansiveness, by introducing other properties…
We deduce a sufficient condition of the exponential (integral) turnpike property for infinite dimensional generalized linear-quadratic optimal control problems in terms of structural properties of the control system, such as exponential…
A central question in verification is characterizing when a system has invariants of a certain form, and then synthesizing them. We say a system has a $k$ linear invariant, $k$-LI in short, if it has a conjunction of $k$ linear (non-strict)…
In this paper, we consider the systems with trajectories originating in the nonnegative orthant becoming nonnegative after some finite time transient. First we consider dynamical systems (i.e., fully observable systems with no inputs),…
Reciprocity is a fundamental symmetry property observed across many physical domains, including acoustics, elasticity, electromagnetics, and thermodynamics. In systems and control theory, it provides key insights into the internal structure…
The characterization of positivity properties of Weyl operators is a notoriously difficult problem, and not much progress has been made since the pioneering work of Kastler, Loupias, and Miracle-Sole (KLM). In this paper we begin by…
The paper presents realization theory of discrete-time linear switched systems. A discrete-time linear switched system is a hybrid system, such that the continuous sub-system associated with each discrete state is linear. In this paper we…
We find simple conditions for a non-negative Hankel quadratic form to be closable. Under some mild a priori assumption on the associated moments these sufficient conditions turn out to be also necessary. We also describe the domain of the…
We prove new characterisations of exponential stability for positive linear discrete-time systems in ordered Banach spaces, in terms of small-gain conditions. Such conditions have played an important role in the finite-dimensional systems…
Positive systems are important class of dynamic systems with impressive properties. The response of such systems to positive initial conditions and positive inputs remain in the nonnegative orthant of the state space. Although positive…
Differential positivity and K-cooperativity, a special case of differential positivity, extend differential approaches to control to nonlinear systems with multiple equilibria, such as switches or multi-agent consensus. To apply this…
We consider the problem of explaining the temporal behavior of black-box systems using human-interpretable models. To this end, based on recent research trends, we rely on the fundamental yet interpretable models of deterministic finite…
In the context of positive infinite-dimensional linear systems, we systematically study $L^p$-admissible control and observation operators with respect to the limit-cases $p=\infty$ and $p=1$, respectively. This requires an in-depth…
The paper studies differentially positive systems, that is, systems whose linearization along an arbitrary trajectory is positive. We illustrate the use of differential positivity on compact forward invariant sets for the characterization…
We show that every Hankel operator $H$ is unitarily equivalent to a pseudo-differential operator $A$ of a special structure acting in the space $L^2 ({\Bbb R}) $. As an example, we consider integral operators $H$ in the space $L^2 ({\Bbb…
Four new examples of explicitly diagonalizable Hankel matrices depending on a parameter $k\in(0,1)$ are presented. The Hankel matrices are regarded as matrix operators on the Hilbert space $\ell^{2}(\mathbb{N}_{0})$ and the solution of the…
The paper shows that positive linear systems can be stabilized using positive Luenberger-type observers. This is achieved by structuring the observer as monotonically converging upper and lower bounds on the state. Analysis of the…
Kolmogorov $n$-widths and Hankel singular values are two commonly used concepts in model reduction. Here we show that for the special case of linear time-invariant dynamical (LTI) systems, these two concepts are directly connected. More…
We investigate the simplest class of hyperdeterminants defined by Cayley in the case of Hankel hypermatrices (tensors of the form $A_{i_1i_2... i_k}=f(i_1+i_2+...+i_k)$). It is found that many classical properties of Hankel determinants can…
This paper demonstrates sufficient conditions for the existence of a positive measure set of invariant KAM tori in a singly thermostated, 1 degree-of-freedom hamiltonian vector field. This result is applied to 4 important single thermostats…
