In this paper, we consider a stabilization problem of an uncertain system in a networked control setting. Due to the network, the measurements are quantized to finite-bit signals and may be randomly lost in the communication. We study…
We demonstrate that quantum fluctuations can cause, under certain conditions, the dynamical instability of pure states that can result in their evolution into mixed states. It is shown that the degree and type of such an instability are…
