Given a control system $\dot{p} = X_0(p) + \sum_i u_i (t)X_i(p)$ on a compact manifold M we study conditions for the foliation defined by the accessible sets be dense in M . To do this we relate the control system to a stochastic…
We consider a nonlinear system, affine with respect to an unbounded control $u$ which is allowed to range in a closed cone. To this system we associate a Bolza type minimum problem, with a Lagrangian having sublinear growth with respect to…
This the text of a proceeding accepted for the 21st International Symposium on Mathematical Theory of Networks and Systems (MTNS 2014). We present some results of an ongoing research on the controllability problem of an abstract bilinear…
For control systems that either have a fast explicit periodic dependence on time and bounded controls or have periodic solutions and small controls, we define an average control system that takes into account all possible variations of the…
We consider the finite-time stabilization of homogeneous quasilinear hyperbolic systems with one side controls and with nonlinear boundary condition at the other side. We present time-independent feedbacks leading to the finite-time…
In this note, we characterize affine and non-affine Coxeter systems among all Coxeter systems in terms of the structure of their reflection orders. For an infinite irreducible system $(W,S)$, we show that affineness can be characterized in…
For linear control systems in discrete time controllability properties are characterized. In particular, a unique control set with nonvoid interior exists and it is bounded in the hyperbolic case. Then a formula for the invariance pressure…

For general nonlinear autonomous systems, a Lyapunov characterization for the possibility of semi-global asymptotic stabilizability by means of a time-varying sampled-data feedback is established. We exploit this result in order to derive a…
An exact and analytic control protocol of two types of finite dimensional quantum systems is proposed. The system can be drive to an arbitrary target state using cosine classical fields in finite cycles. The control parameters which are…
In this paper, we study the well-posedness and approximate controllability of a class of network systems having delays and controls at the boundary conditions. The particularity of this work is that the network system is defined on infinite…
In this paper, we study the concept of approximate controllability of retarded network systems of neutral type. On one hand, we reformulate such systems as free-delay boundary control systems on product spaces. On the other hand, we use the…
We consider robust control synthesis for linear systems with complex specifications that are affected by uncertain disturbances. This work is motivated by autonomous systems interacting with partially known, time-varying environments. Given…
This paper applies the recently developed framework for integral control on nonlinear spaces to two non-standard cases. First, we show that the property of perfect target stabilization in presence of actuation bias holds also if this bias…
In this paper, we characterize the accessibility of discrete-time linear control systems on Lie groups. Using an exceptional notion of derivative, we construct a subalgebra $\mathfrak{h}$ based on the infinitesimal automorphism of the…
We consider output trajectory tracking for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems whose internal dynamics may be modelled by infinite-dimensional systems which are bounded-input, bounded-output stable. We describe under which conditions…
It is well-known that the controllability of finite-dimensional nonlinear systems can be established by showing the controllability of the linearized system. However, this classical result does not generalize to infinite-dimensional…
Monotone systems, also known as order-preserving or cooperative systems, are prevalent in models of engineering applications such as transportation and biological networks. In this paper, we investigate the problem of finding a control…
In [22] a form of extremum seeking for control (ESC) was developed for the stabilization of uncertain nonlinear systems. In ESC the extremum seeker itself controls the systems through feedback rather than fine tuning a controller. The ESC…
The prescribed-time stabilization problem for a general class of nonlinear systems with unknown input gain and appended dynamics (with unmeasured state) is addressed. Unlike the asymptotic stabilization problem, the prescribed-time…
