For a large class of Lur'e systems with time-varying nonlinearities and feedthrough we consider several well-posedness issues, namely: existence, continuation, blow-up in finite-time, forward completeness and uniqueness of solutions. Lur'e…
We consider discrete ensembles of linear, scalar control systems with single-inputs. Assuming that all the individual systems are unstable, we investigate whether there exist linear feedback control laws that can asymptotically stabilize…

In this work, sample-based observability of linear discrete-time systems is studied. That is, we consider the case where the system output measurements are not available at every time instance. It is shown that some discrete-time systems…
The stability of linear dynamic systems with hysteresis in feedback is considered. While the absolute stability for memoryless nonlinearities (known as Lure's problem) can be proved by the well-known circle criterion, the multivalued…

We propose a variational formulation for the nonequilibrium thermodynamics of discrete open systems, i.e., discrete systems which can exchange mass and heat with the exterior. Our approach is based on a general variational formulation for…
The paper presents a model reduction framework geared towards the analysis and design of systems that switch and oscillate. While such phenomena are ubiquitous in nature and engineering, model reduction methods are not well developed for…

Many complex systems can spontaneously oscillate under non-periodic forcing. Such self-oscillators are commonplace in biological and technological assemblies where temporal periodicity is needed, such as the beating of a human heart or the…
