We introduce and study bipartite quantum states that are invariant under the local action of the cyclic sign group. Due to symmetry, these states are sparse and can be parameterized by a triple of vectors. Their important semi-definite…
Bounded-input bounded-output stability condition of linear time invariant (LTI) distributed-order system over integral interval $(0,1)$ has been established for the first time. Two cases about weighting function of the distributed order are…
In control theory, understanding the observability property of a system is crucial for effectively managing and controlling dynamical systems. This property empowers us to deduce the internal state of a system from its outputs over time,…
The method of reflection positivity and infrared bounds allows to prove the occurrence of phase transitions in systems with continuous symmetries. We review the method in the context of quantum spin systems.
We study robustness of bipartite entangled states that are positive under partial transposition (PPT). It is shown that almost all PPT entangled states are unconditionally robust, in the sense, both inseparability and positivity are…
In this paper, we present new characterizations of normal and positive operators in terms of their powers. Among other things, we show that if $T^2$ is normal, $\mathcal{W}(T^{2k+1})$ lies on one side of a line passing through the origin…
This paper studies the class of logarithmically completely monotonic (LCM) functions. These functions play an important role in characterising externally positive linear systems which find applications in important control problems such as…
Consider that a linear time-invariant (LTI) plant is given and that we wish to design a stabilizing controller for it. Admissible controllers are LTI and must comply with a pre-selected sparsity pattern. The sparsity pattern is assumed to…
This paper focuses on boundary approximate controllability under positivity constraints of a wide range of infinite-dimensional control systems. We develop frequency domain controllability criteria. Firstly, we derive a controllability…
We study the problem of learning to stabilize (LTS) a linear time-invariant (LTI) system. Policy gradient (PG) methods for control assume access to an initial stabilizing policy. However, designing such a policy for an unknown system is one…
In a recent short note [Bergeron H, Gazeau J P, Siegl P and Youssef A 2010 EPL 92 60003], we have presented the nice properties of a new family of semi-classical states for P\"oschl-Teller potentials. These states are built from a…
In this work we consider linear non-autonomous systems of Wazewski type on Hilbert spaces and provide a new approach to study their stability properties by means of a decomposition into subsystems and conditions implied on the…
In this article, a new notion of modal strong structural controllability is introduced and examined for a family of LTI networks. These networks include structured LTI subsystems, whose system matrices have the same zero/nonzero/arbitrary…
We define predictive states and predictive complexity for quantum systems composed of distinct subsystems. This complexity is a generalization of entanglement entropy. It is inspired by the statistical or forecasting complexity of…
Optimism in the face of uncertainty is a popular approach to balance exploration and exploitation in reinforcement learning. Here, we consider the online linear quadratic regulator (LQR) problem, i.e., to learn the LQR corresponding to an…
This paper is devoted to the stability analysis of an n species Lotka-Volterra system with discrete and distributed delays. Stochastic perturbations to the parameters of the model are allowed. Sufficient conditions for the almost sure…
The integral control of positive systems using nonnegative control input is an important problem arising, among others, in biochemistry, epidemiology and ecology. An immediate solution is to use an ON-OFF nonlinearity between the controller…
We consider complete positivity of dynamics regarding subsystems of an open composite quantum system, which is subject of a completely positive dynamics. By "completely positive dynamics", we assume the dynamical maps called the completely…
A causal input-output system may be described by a function space for inputs, a function space for outputs, and a causal operator mapping the input space into the output space. A particular representation of the state of such a system at…
Hankel determinantal rings, i.e., determinantal rings defined by minors of Hankel matrices of indeterminates, arise as homogeneous coordinate rings of higher order secant varieties of rational normal curves; they may also be viewed as…
