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 linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control design for linear port-Hamiltonian systems. To this end, we exploit the freedom in choosing the weighting matrices and propose a specific choice which leads to an LQG controller which is…

In a recent work [D. K. Burgarth et al., Nat. Commun. 5, 5173 (2014)] it was shown that a series of frequent measurements can project the dynamics of a quantum system onto a subspace in which the dynamics can be more complex. In this…
