For homogeneous bilinear control systems, the control sets are characterized using a Lie algebra rank condition for the induced systems on projective space. This is based on a classical Diophantine approximation result. For affine control…
The dynamical behavior of switched affine systems is known to be more intricate than that of the well-studied switched linear systems, essentially due to the existence of distinct equilibrium points for each subsystem. First, under…
We consider an optimal control problem subject to a semilinear elliptic PDE together with its variational discretization. We provide a condition which allows to decide whether a solution of the necessary first order conditions is a global…
In this paper, we obtain weak conditions for the existence of a control set with a nonempty interior for a linear control system on a solvable Lie group. We show that the Lie algebra rank condition together with the compactness of the…
According to recent results, convergence in a prespecified or prescribed finite time can be achieved under extreme model uncertainty if control is applied continuously over time. This paper shows that this extreme amount of uncertainty…
We show that the locations where finite- and infinite-time clustering occurs for the 1D Euler-alignment system can be determined using only the initial data. Our present work provides the first results on the structure of the finite-time…
We study affine control systems on smooth manifolds and their complete lifts to the tangent bundle, providing an explicit geometric description of the solutions of the lifted system. We show that, although controllability of the complete…
Solving optimal control problems to determine a stabilizing controller involves a significant computational effort. Time-varying optimal control provides a remedy by designing a tracking system, given as an ordinary differential equation,…
We address a class of systems for which the solution to an H-infinity optimal control problem can be given on a very simple closed form. In fact, both the control law and optimal performance value are explicitly given. The class of systems…
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 work, we will investigate the question of optimal control for bilinear systems with constrained endpoint. The optimal control will be characterized through a set of unconstrained minimization problems that approximate the former.…
For systems with infinite-order phase transitions, in which an order parameter smoothly becomes nonzero, a new observable for finite-size scaling analysis is suggested. By construction this new observable has the favourable property of…
This article deals with variational optimal-control problems on time scales in the presence of delay in the state variables. The problem is considered on a time scale unifying the discrete, the continuous and the quantum cases. Two examples…
This paper is devoted to the controllability of a general linear hyperbolic system in one space dimension using boundary controls on one side. Under precise and generic assumptions on the boundary conditions on the other side, we previously…
We study the optimal control problem for a control-affine system, where we want to minimize the $L^1$ norm of the control. First, we show how Pontryagin Maximum Principle (PMP) applies to this problem and we divide the extremal trajectories…
A number of important modern applications in optimal control can be formulated as open loop control problems in which the underlying dynamical systems are subject to random inputs. These so-called ensemble control problems require the…
An optimal control problem for the continuity equation is considered. The aim of a "controller" is to maximize the total mass within a target set at a given time moment. The existence of optimal controls is established. For a particular…
The environment of an open quantum system is usually modelled as a large many-body quantum system. However, when an isolated quantum system itself is a many-body quantum system, the question of how large and complex it must be in order to…
In this paper we study an optimal control problem that is affine in two-dimensional bounded control. The problem is related to the stabilization of an inverted spherical pendulum in the vicinity of the upper unstable equilibrium. We find…
The paper presents results about strong metric subregularity of the optimality mapping associated with the system of first-order necessary optimality conditions for a problem of optimal control of a semilinear parabolic equation. The…
