For linear evolution control system described by $\dot{x}=Ax(t)+Bu(t),x(0)=x_{0}$ ($A$ generates a strongly continuous semigroup ${S(t)}_{t\ge 0}$ in a Banach space $X$; $B$ is a linear unbounded operator), the attainable set $K(t)$ is…
For homogeneous bilinear control systems, the control sets are characterized using a Lie algebra rank condition for the induced systems on projective space. This is based on a classical Diophantine approximation result. For affine control…

In this paper, we present a geometric approach for computing the controlled invariant set of a continuous-time control system. While the problem is well studied for in the ellipsoidal case, this family is quite conservative for constrained…
