We use sheaves and algebraic L-theory to construct the rational Pontryagin classes of fiber bundles with fiber R^n. This amounts to an alternative proof of Novikov's theorem on the topological invariance of the rational Pontryagin classes…
In this paper, we study compatible Leibniz algebras. We characterize compatible Leibniz algebras in terms of Maurer-Cartan elements of a suitable differential graded Lie algebra. We define a cohomology theory of compatible Leibniz algebras…
A geometric setup for control theory is presented. The argument is developed through the study of the extremals of action functionals defined on piecewise differentiable curves, in the presence of differentiable non-holonomic constraints.…
We consider systems of parabolic equations coupled in zero order terms in a star-like or a tree-like shape, with an internal control acting in only one of the equations. We obtain local exact controllability to the stationary solutions of…
We establish connections between different approaches to inverse spectral problems: the classical Gelfand--Levitan theory, the Krein method, the Simon theory, the approach proposed by Remling and the Boundary Control method. We show that…
We establish a variety of results extending the well-known Pontryagin maximum principle of optimal control to discrete-time optimal control problems posed on smooth manifolds. These results are organized around a new theorem on critical and…
We use controlled topology applied to the action of the infinite dihedral group on a partially compactified plane and deduce two consequences for algebraic K-theory. The first is that the family in the K-theoretic Farrell-Jones conjecture…
We consider the problem of the numerical approximation of the linear controllability of waves. All our experiments are done in a bounded domain \Omega of the plane, with Dirichlet boundary conditions and internal control. We use a Galerkin…

In this paper, we propose an adaptive control law for completely unknown scalar linear systems based on Lie-bracket approximation methods. We investigate stability and convergence properties for the resulting Lie-bracket system, compare our…
We define E-theory for separable C*-algebras over second countable topological spaces and establish its basic properties. This includes an approximation theorem that relates the E-theory over a general space to the E-theories over finite…
We investigate the well-known Loday-Quillen-Tsygan theorem, which calculates the Lie algebra homology of the general linear algebra $\mathfrak{gl}(A)$ for an associative algebra $A$ in terms of cyclic homology, and extend the proof to…
S.P.Novikov developed an analog of the Morse theory for closed 1-forms. In this paper I suggest an analog of the Lusternik - Schnirelman theory for closed 1-forms.
We consider the controllability problem for the continuity equation, corresponding to neural ordinary differential equations (ODEs), which describes how a probability measure is pushedforward by the flow. We show that the controlled…
We obtain a generalization of Noether's invariance principle for optimal control problems with equality and inequality state-input constraints. The result relates the invariance properties of the problems with the existence of conserved…
This paper is dedicated to the elementary proof of Pontryagin's maximum principle for problems with free right end point. The proof for the standard problem is taken from the monography of Ioffe and Tichomirov. We assume piecewise…
Approximate controllability of the Euler equations is investigated by means of a finite set of actuators. It is proven that approximate controllability holds if we can find a saturating subset of actuators. The notion of saturating set is…
In this paper, we construct a Hamiltonian Floer theory based invariant called relative symplectic cohomology, which assigns a module over the Novikov ring to compact subsets of closed symplectic manifolds. We show the existence of…

The well-known fact following from the Holmgren-John-Tataru uniqueness theorem is a local approximate boundary $L_2$-controllability of the dynamical system governed by the wave equation. Generalizing this result, we establish the…
