In this work, we found a non trivial topology to achieve the controllability for linear and nonlinear system in finite or infinite time horizon. We give several examples illustrating this topologizing method for the controllability results.…
The aim of this work is to study the controllability of the Schr\"odinger equation \begin{equation}\label{eq_abstract} i\partial_t u(t)=-\Delta u(t)~~~~~\text{ on }\Omega(t) \tag{$\ast$} \end{equation} with Dirichlet boundary conditions,…
We consider the approximate control of solitons in generalized Korteweg-de Vries equations. By introducing a suitable internal bilinear control on the equation, we prove that any soliton is locally null controllable, and moreover, any…
A method of designing observers and observer-based tracking controllers is proposed for nonlinear systems on manifolds via embedding into Euclidean space and transversal stabilization. Given a system on a manifold, we first embed the…
We investigate the internal controllability of the wave equation with structural damping on the one dimensional torus. We assume that the control is acting on a moving point or on a moving small interval with a constant velocity. We prove…
In this work, we are interested in the controllability of Vlasov-Poisson systems in the presence of an external force field (namely a bounded force field or a magnetic field), by means of a local interior control. We are able to extend the…
Willems' fundamental lemma asserts that all trajectories of a linear time-invariant system can be obtained from a finite number of measured ones, assuming that controllability and a persistency of excitation condition hold. We show that…
We show that a bilinear control system is approximately controllable if and only if it is controllable in $\mathbb{R}^{n}\setminus\{0\}$. We approach this problem by looking at the foliation made by the orbits of the system, and by showing…
Furstenberg, Katznelson and Weiss proved in the early 1980s that every measurable subset of the plane with positive density at infinity has the property that all sufficiently large real numbers are realised as the Euclidean distance between…
This paper deals with the control of a kind of turbulent flows. We consider a simplified k-e model with distributed controls, locally supported in space. We proof that the system is partially locally null-controllable, in the sense that the…
We show the existence of Lipschitz-in-space optimal controls for a class of mean-field control problems with dynamics given by a non-local continuity equation. The proof relies on a vanishing viscosity method: we prove the convergence of…
In this paper, we investigate the controllability of the point vortex system by means of a single vortex. The point vortex system is a well-known simplied model for the incompressible Euler equation, where the vorticity is concentrated in a…
In this paper we study the controllability of an artificial advection-diffusion system through the boundary. Suitable Carleman estimates give us the observability on the adjoint system in the one dimensional case. We also study some basic…
We continue our study of the problem of mixing for a class of PDEs with very degenerate noise. As we established earlier, the uniqueness of stationary measure and its exponential stability in the dual-Lipschitz metric holds under the…
In this paper we introduce a new dynamical condition, the comb geometric control condition, which is sufficient for observability of the Schr\"odinger equation in Euclidean space. We provide examples which show this condition is strictly…
Infinite-dimensional linear port-Hamiltonian systems on a one-dimensional spatial domain with full boundary control and without internal damping are studied. This class of systems includes models of beams and waves as well as the transport…
Control theory concerns with the question if and how it is possible to drive the behavior of a complex dynamical system. A system is said to be controllable if we can drive it from any initial state to any desired final state in finite…
We prove approximate controllability of the bilinear Schr\"odinger equation in the case in which the uncontrolled Hamiltonian has discrete non-resonant spectrum. The results that are obtained apply both to bounded or unbounded domains and…
Kalman's fundamental notion of a controllable state space system \cite{k} has been generalised to higher order systems by Willems \cite{w}, and further to distributed systems defined by partial differential equations \cite{ps}. It turns…
We study control systems on the tangent bundle of a smooth manifold induced by vertical lifts of vector fields. The Vertical dynamics acts exclusively along the fibers, leaving the base point unchanged and reducing the system to a linear…
