Nonlinear systems of affine control inputs overarch many sensor fusion instances. Analyzing whether a state variable in such a nonlinear system can be estimated (i.e., observability) informs better estimator design. Among the research on…
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…

A simultaneous input and state interval observer is presented for Lipschitz continuous nonlinear systems with unknown inputs and bounded noise signals for the case when the direct feedthrough matrix has full column rank. The observer…
We state sufficient conditions for the existence, on a given open set, of the extension, to nonlinear systems, of the Luenberger observer as it has been proposed by Kazantzis and Kravaris. We prove it is sufficient to choose the dimension…

The present paper is concerned with strong stability of solutions of non-autonomous equations of the form $\dot u(t)=A(t)u(t)$, where $A(t)$ is an unbounded operator in a Banach space depending almost periodically on $t$. A general…
We consider the eigenvalues of an elliptic operator for systems with bounded, measurable, and symmetric coefficients. We assume we have two non-empty, open, disjoint, and bounded sets and add a set of small measure to form the perturbed…
There is a great demand for vision-based robotics solutions that can operate using Global Positioning Systems (GPS), but are also robust against GPS signal loss and gyroscope failure. This paper investigates the estimation and tracking…
In this paper, we propose fixed-order set-valued (in the form of l2-norm hyperballs) observers for some classes of nonlinear bounded-error dynamical systems with unknown input signals that simultaneously find bounded hyperballs of states…
The Koopman operator approach to the state estimation problem for nonlinear systems is a promising research area. The main goal of this paper is an attempt to provide a rigorous theoretical framework for this approach. In particular, the…
This paper explores the observability and estimation capability of dynamical systems using predominantly relative measurements of the system's state-space variables, with minimal to no reliance on absolute measurements of these variables.…
We prove sharp stability estimates for the variation of the eigenvalues of non-negative self-adjoint elliptic operators of arbitrary even order upon variation of the open sets on which they are defined. These estimates are expressed in…
