It is known that if a nonlinear control affine system without drift is bracket generating, then its associated sub-Laplacian is invertible under some conditions on the domain. In this note, we investigate the converse. We show how…
In this paper, we are concerned with the internal control of a class of one-dimensional nonlinear parabolic systems with nonlocal and weakly degenerate diffusion coefficients. Our main theorem establishes a local null controllability result…
This paper is concerned with a class of controlled singular Volterra integral equations, which could be used to describe problems involving memories. The well-known fractional order ordinary differential equations of the Riemann--Liouville…
We precisely uniform 3 theories that are widely used for symplectic geometers: (Almost) modules over Novikov ring, Persistence module, and Tamarkin category. Along with our method, we also give a neat understanding and language for the…
This paper addresses the time-optimal control problem for a class of control systems which includes controlled mechanical systems with possible dissipation terms. The Lie algebras associated with such mechanical systems enjoy certain…
When a differential field $K$ having $n$ commuting derivations is given together with two finitely generated differential extensions $L$ and $M$ of $K$, an important problem in differential algebra is to exhibit a common differential…
The aim of this paper is to study the null controllability of a class of quasilinear parabolic equations. In a first step we prove that the associated linear parabolic equations with non-constant diffusion coefficients are approximately…
In this paper, we first construct the controlling algebras of embedding tensors and Lie-Leibniz triples, which turn out to be a graded Lie algebra and an $L_\infty$-algebra respectively. Then we introduce representations and cohomologies of…
The fundamental theorem of the theory of optimal control, the Pontryagin maximum principle (PMP), is extended to the setting of almost Lie (AL) algebroids, geometrical objects generalizing Lie algebroids. This formulation of the PMP yields,…
The usefulness in control theory of the geometric theory of motion on Lie groups and homogeneous spaces will be shown. We quickly review some recent results concerning two methods to deal with these systems, namely, a generalization of the…
We extend the second Noether theorem to optimal control problems which are invariant under symmetries depending upon k arbitrary functions of the independent variable and their derivatives up to some order m. As far as we consider a…
This paper gives a summary of a body of work at the intersection of control theory and smooth nonlinear dynamics. The main idea is to transfer the concept of uniform hyperbolicity, central to the theory of smooth dynamical systems, to…
We discuss controlled connectivity properties of closed 1-forms and their cohomology classes and relate them to the simple homotopy type of the Novikov complex. The degree of controlled connectivity of a closed 1-form depends only on…
We study several aspects of the dynamic programming approach to optimal control of abstract evolution equations, including a class of semilinear partial differential equations. We introduce and prove a verification theorem which provides a…
The present paper represents a continuation of our previous one. There, a continuous dependence result for the solution of an elliptic variational-hemivariational inequality was obtained and then used to prove the existence of optimal pairs…
We use K-area homology to summarize some results about the Novikov conjecture and the Hirzebruch L-class. In fact, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for closed manifolds to have a homotopy invariant L-class. In order to obtain…
For a given closed target we embed the dissipative relation that defines a control Lyapunov function in a more general differential inequality involving Hamiltonians built from iterated Lie brackets. The solutions of the resulting extended…
We treat control of several two-level atoms interacting with one mode of the electromagnetic field in a cavity. This provides a useful model to study pertinent aspects of quantum control in infinite dimensions via the emergence of…
We show that for an associative algebra A and its ideal I such that the I-adic topology on A coincides with the p-adic topology, the relative continuous K-theory pro-spectrum "lim"K(A_i, IA_i), where A_i :=A/p^i A, is naturally isogenous to…
In this paper we study a natural extension of Kontsevich's characteristic class construction for A-infinity and L-infinity algebras to the case of curved algebras. These define homology classes on a variant of his graph homology which…
