The paper analyzes a Lagrangian system which is controlled by directly assigning some of the coordinates as functions of time, by means of frictionless constraints. In a natural system of coordinates, the equations of motions contain terms…
Minimum-time quantum control protocols can be obtained from the quantum brachistochrone formalism [Carlini, Hosoya, Koike, and Okudaira, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 06053, (2006)]. We point out that the original treatment implicitly applied the…

We consider time-optimal controls of a controllable linear system with a scalar control on a long time interval. It is well-known that if all the eigenvalues of the matrix describing the linear system dynamics are real then any time-optimal…
A novel method for control of dynamical systems, proposed in the paper, ensures an output signal belonging to the given set at any time. The method is based on a special change of coordinates such that the initial problem with given…
Solving inverse problems by dynamical variant of the BC-method is basically reduced to inverting the connecting operator $C^T$ of the dynamical system, for which the problem is stated. Realizing the method numerically, one needs to invert…
The truncated moment problem asks to characterize finite sequences of real numbers that are the moments of a positive Borel measure on Rn. Its tracial analog is obtained by integrating traces of symmetric matrices and is the main topic of…
In this paper, we address the so-called general Fokker-Planck control problem for discrete-time first-order linear systems. Unlike conventional treatments, we don't assume the distributions of the system states to be Gaussian. Instead, we…
