Monotone systems comprise an important class of dynamical systems that are of interest both for their wide applicability and because of their interesting mathematical properties. It is known that under the property of quasimonotonicity…
We consider the inhomogeneous biharmonic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (IBNLS) $$ i u_t +\Delta^2 u+\lambda|x|^{-b}|u|^\alpha u = 0, $$ where $\lambda=\pm 1$ and $\alpha$, $b>0$. We show local and global well-posedness in…
For large-scale network systems, network centrality based on control theory plays a crucial role in understanding their properties and controlling them efficiently. The controllability score is such a centrality index and can give a…
T-duality of string theory suggests nonlocality manifested as the shortest possible distance. As an alternative, we suggest a nonlocal formulation of string theory that breaks T-duality at the fundamental level and does not require the…
We consider the linear complementarity problem with uncertain data modeled by intervals, representing the range of possible values. Many properties of the linear complementarity problem (such as solvability, uniqueness, convexity, finite…
There are several results on the stability of nonlinear positive systems in the presence of time delays. However, most of them assume that the delays are constant. This paper considers time-varying, possibly unbounded, delays and…
The input/output stability of an interconnected system composed of an ordinary differential equation and a damped string equation is studied. Issued from the literature on time-delay systems, an exact stability result is firstly derived…
This paper addresses a fundamental and important question in control: under what conditions does there fail to exist a robust control policy that keeps the state of a constrained linear system within a target set, despite bounded…
We present a scalable set-valued safety-preserving controller for constrained continuous-time linear time-invariant (LTI) systems subject to additive, unknown but bounded disturbance or uncertainty. The approach relies upon a conservative…
We prove a stability version of a general result that bounds the permanent of a matrix in terms of its operator norm. More specifically, suppose $A$ is an $n \times n$ matrix over $\mathbb{C}$ (resp. $\mathbb{R}$), and let $\mathcal{P}$…
This paper studies stabilization of linear time-invariant (LTI) systems when control actions can only be realized in finitely many directions where it is possible to actuate uniformly or logarithmically extended positive scaling factors in…
Digital controller design for nonlinear systems may be complicated by the fact that an exact discrete-time plant model is not known. One existing approach employs approximate discrete-time models for stability analysis and control design,…
Classical sufficient conditions for ensuring the robust stability of a dynamical system in feedback with a nonlinearity include passivity, small gain, circle, and conicity theorems. We present a generalized version of these results for…
For networked systems, the control law is typically subject to network flaws such as delays and packet dropouts. Hence, the time in between updates of the control law varies unexpectedly. Here, we present a stability theorem for nonlinear…
The stabilization of nonlinear systems under zero-state-detectability assumption or its analogues is considered. The proposed supervisory control provides a finite time practical stabilization of output and it is based on uniting local and…
For a non-linear MIMO feedback system, the robustness against uncertain time-variations in the feedback loop is investigated in an input-output framework. A general sufficient condition in terms of a bound on average rates of time-variation…
This paper proposes a frequency-wise approach for stability analysis of multi-input, multi-output (MIMO) Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) feedback systems through Scaled Relative Graphs (SRGs). Unlike traditional methods, such as the Generalized…
A linear stability analysis of twisted flux-tubes (strings) in an SU(2) semilocal theory -- an Abelian-Higgs model with two charged scalar fields with a global SU(2) symmetry -- is carried out. Here the twist refers to a relative phase…
We introduce general results on well-posedness and output regulation of regular linear systems with nonautonomous controllers. We present a generalization of the internal model principle for time-dependent controllers with asymptotically…
We provide new infinitesimal characterizations for strong invariance of multifunctions in terms of Hamiltonian inequalities and tangent cones. In lieu of the standard local Lipschitzness assumption on the multifunction, we assume a new…
