This paper develops a robust safety-critical control method for nonlinear strictfeedback systems with mismatched disturbances. Using a state transformation and a linear time-varying disturbance observer, the system is converted into a form…

Feedback or closed-loop control allows dynamical systems to increase their performance up to a limit imposed by the second law of thermodynamics. It is expected that within this limit, the system performance increases as the controller uses…

This work introduces a controller synthesis method via system level synthesis for nonlinear systems characterized by polynomial dynamics. The resulting framework yields finite impulse response, time-invariant, closed-loop transfer functions…

This paper introduces a framework for quantitative characterization of the controllability of time-varying linear systems (or networks) in terms of input novelty. The motivation for such an approach comes from the study of biophysical…

Coherent feedback is a non-measurement based, hence a back-action free, method of control for quantum systems. A typical application of this control scheme is squeezing enhancement, a purely non-classical effect in quantum optics. In this…

We use first-order perturbation theory to provide a local linear relation between the circuit parameters and the poles of an RLC network. The sensitivity matrix, which defines this relationship, is obtained from the systems eigenvectors and…

This note studies the robust output feedback stabilization problem of a class of multi-input multi-output invertible nonlinear systems, for which an "ideal" state feedback based on feedback linearization can be designed under certain mild…

In this paper, we quantify the resilience of nonlinear dynamical systems by studying the increased energy used by all inputs of a system that suffers a partial loss of control authority, either through actuator malfunctions or through…

Antifragility characterizes the benefit of a dynamical system derived from the variability in environmental perturbations. Antifragility carries a precise definition that quantifies a system's output response to input variability. Systems…

This survey paper deals with the stabilization of nonlinear systems by analyzing the controlling method in terms of state feedback and output feedback. A brief overview of some literature on how the feedback controller of some dynamic…

In psychology and neuroscience it is common to describe cognitive systems as input/output devices where perceptual and motor functions are implemented in a purely feedforward, open-loop fashion. On this view, perception and action are often…

This paper develops a control-theoretic framework for analyzing agentic systems embedded within feedback control loops, where an AI agent may adapt controller parameters, select among control strategies, invoke external tools, reconfigure…

Critical phenomena in non-equilibrium systems have been studied by means of a wide variety of theoretical and experimental approaches. Mode-coupling, renormalization group, complex Lie algebras and diagrammatic techniques are some of the…

In this paper we present a general tool to handle the presence of zero dynamics which are asymptotically but not locally exponentially stable in problems of robust nonlinear stabilization by output feedback. We show how it is possible to…

This paper considers the problem of testing whether there exists a solution satisfying certain non-negativity constraints to a linear system of equations. Importantly and in contrast to some prior work, we allow all parameters in the system…

In this paper, we study a fault-tolerant control for systems consisting of multiple homogeneous components such as parallel processing machines. This type of system is often more robust to uncertainty compared to those with a single…

This article aims to provide an accessible, tutorial-style introduction to hybrid extremum-seeking systems, which are model-free, feedback-optimization controllers that incorporate hybrid dynamics, meaning both continuous-time and…

This paper proposes a unifying design framework for dynamic feedback controllers that track solution trajectories of time-varying generalized equations, such as local minimizers of nonlinear programs or competitive equilibria (e.g., Nash)…

We examine when differentially flat nonlinear control systems with more than two inputs can be rendered static feedback linearizable by a minimal number of prolongations of suitably chosen inputs after applying a static input…

Feedback optimization has emerged as an effective strategy for steady-state optimization of dynamical systems. By exploiting models of the steady-state input-output sensitivity, methods of this type are often sample efficient, and their use…
