We consider in this paper the regularity problem for time-optimal trajectories of a single-input control-affine system on a n-dimensional manifold. We prove that, under generic conditions on the drift and the controlled vector field, any…
When applying methods of optimal control to motion planning or stabilization problems, some theoretical or numerical difficulties may arise, due to the presence of specific trajectories, namely, singular minimizing trajectories of the…
Many optimal control problems exhibit a peculiar behavior that is not completely understood, the Fuller Phenomenon. In a naive way, this phenomenon can be described as the accumulation of discontinuities in the control function. In this…
In this article we study optimal control problems for systems that are affine in one part of the control variable. Finitely many equality and inequality constraints on the initial and final values of the state are considered. We investigate…
We study the singularities for minimum time control-affine problems in 4D with 2D controls. After regularization, the problem boils down to the study of a bifurcation around some nilpotent equilibrium in the singular locus. We show that the…
An open question contributed by Yu. Orlov to a recently published volume "Unsolved Problems in Mathematical Systems and Control Theory", V.D. Blondel, A. Megretski (eds), Princeton Univ. Press, 2004, concerns regularization of optimal…
This paper deals with optimal control problems for systems affine in the control variable. We consider nonnegativity constraints on the control, and finitely many equality and inequality constraints on the final state. First, we obtain…
For affine control systems with bounded control range the control sets, i.e., the maximal subsets of complete approximate controllability, are studied using spectral properties. For hyperbolic systems there is a unique control set with…
We present necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for finite time optimal control problems for a class of hybrid systems described by linear complementarity models. Although these optimal control problems are difficult in general…
Formation control is concerned with the design of control laws that stabilize agents at given distances from each other, with the constraint that an agent's dynamics can depend only on a subset of other agents. When the information flow…
We study the set of intrinsic singularities of flat affine systems with $n-1$ controls and $n$ states using the notion of Lie-B\"acklund atlas, previously introduced by the authors. For this purpose, we prove two easily computable…
Solving a singular linear system for an individual vector solution is an ill-posed problem with a condition number infinity. From an alternative perspective, however, the general solution of a singular system is of a bounded sensitivity as…
Sufficient and necessary conditions are established for controllability of affine control systems where the control is constrained to a set whose convex hull contains the origin but is not necessarily, in contrast with previously known…
In control theory, the term chattering is used to refer to strong oscillations of controls, such as an infinite number of switchings over a compact interval of times. In this paper we focus on three typical occurences of chattering: the…
In this article we study optimal control problems for systems that are affine with respect to some of the control variables and nonlinear in relation to the others. We consider finitely many equality and inequality constraints on the…
We study a control system resembling a singularly perturbed system whose variables are decomposed into groups that change their values with rates of different orders of magnitude. We establish that the slow trajectories of this system are…
In this paper, we present a control problem related to a semilinear differential equation with a moving singularity, i.e., the singular point depends on a parameter. The particularity of the controllability condition resides in the fact…
This paper is an attempt to classify finite-time singularities of PDEs. Most of the problems considered describe free-surface flows, which are easily observed experimentally. We consider problems where the singularity occurs at a point, and…
The paper is concerned with a scalar balance law, where the source term depends on a control function $\alpha(t)$. Given a control $\alpha\in \mathbf{L}^\infty\bigl([0,T]\bigr)$, it is proved that, for generic initial data $\bar u \in…
Control-affine output systems generically present observability singularities, i.e. inputs that make the system unobservable. This proves to be a difficulty in the context of output feedback stabilization, where this issue is usually…
