We characterise asymptotic stability of port-Hamiltonian systems by means of matrix conditions using well-known resolvent criteria from $C_0$-semigroup theory. The idea of proof is based on a recent characterisation of exponential stability…

We study some stronger forms of sensitivity, namely, F-sensitivity and weakly F-sensitivity for non-autonomous discrete dynamical systems. We obtain a condition under which these two forms of sensitivity are equivalent. We also justify the…

We investigate the existence of solutions of reversible and irreversible port-Hamiltonian systems. To this end, we utilize the associated exergy, a function that is composed of the system's Hamiltonian and entropy, to prove global existence…

We show the existence of formal equivalences between reversible and Hamiltonian vector fields. The main tool we employ is the normal form theory.

We consider the description of open quantum systems with probability sinks (or sources) in terms of general non-Hermitian Hamiltonians.~Within such a framework, we study novel possible definitions of the quantum linear entropy as an…

The purpose of this paper is to study the realization theory of quantum linear systems. It is shown that for a general quantum linear system its controllability and observability are equivalent and they can be checked by means of a simple…

Passive discrete-time systems with Hilbert spaces as an incoming and outgoing space and a Pontryagin space as a state space are investigated. A geometric characterization when the index of the transfer function coincides with the negative…

Adaptive structures are equipped with sensors and actuators to actively counteract external loads such as wind. This can significantly reduce resource consumption and emissions during the life cycle compared to conventional structures. A…

We introduce a new definition of discrete-time port-Hamiltonian systems (PHS), which results from structure-preserving discretization of explicit PHS in time. We discretize the underlying continuous-time Dirac structure with the collocation…

In this Letter we consider stationary states of dissipative quantum systems. We discuss stationary states of dissipative quantum systems, which coincide with stationary states of Hamiltonian quantum systems. Dissipative quantum systems with…

We consider a port-Hamiltonian system on a spatial domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ that is bounded with Lipschitz boundary. We show that there is a boundary triple associated to this system. Hence, we can characterize all boundary…

A linear dynamical system is called positive if its flow maps the non-negative orthant to itself. More precisely, it maps the set of vectors with zero sign variations to itself. A linear dynamical system is called $k$-positive if its flow…

For chaotic systems there is a theory for the decay of the survival probability, and for the parametric dependence of the local density of states. This theory leads to the distinction between "perturbative" and "non-perturbative" regimes,…

In a recent paper a slightly modified version of the Bateman system, originally proposed to describe a damped harmonic oscillator, was proposed. This system is really different from the Bateman's one, in the sense that this latter cannot be…

In the present paper we introduce the notion of dilation of a multiparametric linear stationary dynamical system (systems of this type, in particular passive, and conservative scattering ones were first introduced in func-an/9804130). We…

We introduce $(\gamma,\delta)$-similarity, a notion of system comparison that measures to what extent two stable linear dynamical systems behave similarly in an input-output sense. This behavioral similarity is characterized by measuring…

We study the problem of robust performance of quantum systems under structured uncertainties. A specific feature of closed (Hamiltonian) quantum systems is that their poles lie on the imaginary axis and that neither a coherent controller…
