We consider the linear quadratic Gaussian control problem with a discounted cost functional for descriptor systems on the infinite time horizon. Based on recent results from the deterministic framework, we characterize the feasibility of…
In this paper, we revisit the sequential source coding framework to analyze fundamental performance limitations of discrete-time stochastic control systems subject to feedback data-rate constraints in finite-time horizon. The basis of our…
We consider event-triggered linear-quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control when sensor updates are transmitted over an i.i.d. packet-erasure channel. Although the optimal controller in a standard LQG setup is available in closed form, choosing…
This paper presents a sample-efficient, data-driven control framework for finite-horizon linear quadratic (LQ) control of linear time-varying (LTV) systems. In contrast to the time-invariant case, the time-varying LQ problem involves a…
This paper revisits the classical Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control from a modern optimization perspective. We analyze two aspects of the optimization landscape of the LQG problem: 1) connectivity of the set of stabilizing controllers…
We consider optimal signalling and control of discrete-time nonlinear partially observable stochastic systems in state space form. In the first part of the paper, we characterize the operational {\it control-coding capacity}, $C_{FB}$ in…
This paper is concerned with a kind of linear-quadratic (LQ) optimal control problem of backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) with partial information. The cost functional includes cross terms between the state and control, and…
We consider the problem of finite-horizon optimal control of a discrete linear time-varying system subject to a stochastic disturbance and fully observable state. The initial state of the system is drawn from a known Gaussian distribution,…

We consider the problem of planning under observation and motion uncertainty for nonlinear robotics systems. Determining the optimal solution to this problem, generally formulated as a Partially Observed Markov Decision Process (POMDP), is…
This paper is concerned with the linear quadratic (LQ) optimal control of continuous-time system with terminal state constraint. In particular, multiple agents exist in the system which can only access partial information of the matrix…
A decentralized control system with linear dynamics, quadratic cost, and Gaussian disturbances is considered. The system consists of a finite number of subsystems whose dynamics and per-step cost function are coupled through their…
We consider the problem of computing optimal linear control policies for linear systems in finite-horizon. The states and the inputs are required to remain inside pre-specified safety sets at all times despite unknown disturbances. In this…
The purpose of this paper is to study the mixed linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) and $H_\infty$ optimal control problem for linear quantum stochastic systems, where the controller itself is also a quantum system, often referred to as…
The data-driven linear quadratic regulator (ddLQR) is a widely studied control method for unknown dynamical systems with disturbance. Existing approaches, both indirect, i.e., those that identify a model followed by model-based design, and…
This paper is concerned with linear-quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) control for a field-mediated feedback connection of a plant and a coherent (measurement-free) controller. Both the plant and the controller are multimode open quantum harmonic…
This paper investigates a conditional mean-field type linear quadratic (LQ) optimal control problem with partial observation and regime switching, where the conditional expectations of the state and control given the history of Markov chain…
In this two-part paper, we identify a broad class of decentralized output-feedback LQG systems for which the optimal control strategies have a simple intuitive estimation structure and can be computed efficiently. Roughly, we consider the…
Consider a discrete-time Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) problem solved using policy gradient descent when the system matrices are unknown. The gradient is transmitted across a noisy channel over a finite time horizon using analog…
We consider a general linear control system and a general quadratic cost, where the state evolves continuously in time and the control is sampled, i.e., is piecewise constant over a subdivision of the time interval. This is the framework of…
