It is well-known that the Manneville-Pomeau map with a parabolic fixed point of the form $x\mapsto x+x^{1+\alpha} \mod 1$ is stochastically stable for $\alpha\ge 1$ and the limiting measure is the Dirac measure at the fixed point. In this…
Ensuring safety for autonomous systems under uncertainty remains challenging, particularly when safety of the true state is required despite the true state not being fully known. Control barrier functions (CBFs) have become widely adopted…

We consider an unstable scalar linear stochastic system, $X_{n+1}=a X_n + Z_n - U_n$, where $a \geq 1$ is the system gain, $Z_n$'s are independent random variables with bounded $\alpha$-th moments, and $U_n$'s are the control actions that…
The performance of model-based control techniques strongly depends on the quality of the employed dynamics model. If strong guarantees are desired, it is therefore common to robustly treat all possible sources of uncertainty, such as model…
