This article deals with the consensus problem involving agents with time-varying singularities in the dynamics or communication in undirected graph networks. Existing results provide control laws which guarantee asymptotic consensus. These…
We prove a converse Lyapunov theorem for boundedness of reachability sets for a general class of control systems whose flow is Lipschitz continuous on compact intervals with respect to trajectory-dominated inputs. We show that this…
This paper proposes an adaptive neural network-based backstepping controller that uses rigid graph theory to address the distance-based formation control problem and target tracking for nonlinear multi-agent systems with bounded time-delay…
We propose new methods for learning control policies and neural network Lyapunov functions for nonlinear control problems, with provable guarantee of stability. The framework consists of a learner that attempts to find the control and…
In this work, we introduce a novel data-driven model-reference control design approach for unknown linear systems with fully measurable state. The proposed control action is composed by a static feedback term and a reference tracking block,…
Two finite-time consensus protocols are proposed for multi-dimensional multi-agent systems, using direction-preserving and component-wise signum controls respectively. Filippov solutions and non-smooth analysis techniques are adopted to…
This paper deals with asymptotic stability of a class of dynamical systems in terms of smooth Lyapunov pairs. We point out that well known converse Lyapunov results for differential inclusions cannot be applied to this class of dynamical…
In this paper, we extend well-known relationships between global asymptotic controllability, sample stabilizability, and the existence of a control Lyapunov function to a wide class of control systems with unbounded controls, which includes…
In this paper, we study finite-time state consensus problems for continuous nonlinear multi-agent systems. Building on the theory of finite-time Lyapunov stability, we propose sufficient criteria which guarantee the system to reach a…
This Technical Note presents a simple control approach for global trajectory tracking and formation control of underactuated surface vessels equipped with only two propellers. The control approach exploits the inherent cascaded structure of…
The Petrowsky type equation $y_{tt}^\eps+\eps y_{xxxx}^\eps - y_{xx}^\eps=0$, $\eps>0$ encountered in linear beams theory is null controllable through Neumann boundary controls. Due to the boundary layer of size of order $\sqrt{\eps}$…
This letter proposes two finite-time bearing-based control laws for acyclic leader-follower formations. The leaders in formation move with a bounded continuous reference velocity and each follower controls its position with regard to three…
This work has the goal of briefly surveying some key stabilization techniques for general nonlinear systems, for which, as it is well known, a smooth control Lyapunov function may fail to exist. A general overview of the situation with…
Quadratic Lyapunov functions are prevalent in stability analysis of linear consensus systems. In this paper we show that weighted sums of convex functions of the different coordinates are Lyapunov functions for irreducible consensus…
This paper addresses the problem of bearing leader-follower formation control in three-dimensional space by exploring the persistence of excitation (PE) of the desired formation. Using only bearing and relative velocity measurements,…
In this paper the problem of driving the state of a network of identical agents, modeled by boundary-controlled heat equations, towards a common steady-state profile is addressed. Decentralized consensus protocols are proposed to address…
Lyapunov functions are popularly used to investigate the stabilization problem of systems of hyperbolic conservation laws with boundary controls. In real life applications often not every boundary value can be observed. In this work, we…
We study the problem of robust global stabilization in control-affine systems, focusing on dynamic uncertainties in the control directions \emph{and} the presence of topological obstructions that prevent the existence of smooth global…
In this work, we give sufficient conditions for the almost global asymptotic stability of a cascade in which the subsystems are only almost globally asymptotically stable. The result is extended to upper triangular systems of arbitrary…
In this paper, we present Lyapunov-based {\color{black}time varying} controllers for {\color{black}fast} stabilization of a perturbed chain of integrators with bounded uncertainties. We refer to such controllers as {\color{black}time…
