For nonlinear systems that are known to be globally asymptotically stabilizable, control over networks introduces a major challenge because of the asynchrony in the transmission schedule. Maintaining global asymptotic stabilization in…

In this paper, we are interested in the relation between the solutions of the control system $\dot x=f(x,u)$ and the solutions of its (potentially unknown) perturbation $\dot x=f(x,u)+w(x,t).$ Under the assumption that the linear part of…

We study nonlinear systems with observation errors. The main problem addressed in this paper is the design of feedbacks for globally asymptotically controllable (GAC) control affine systems that render the closed loop systems input to state…

In this paper, first, it is shown that if a nonlinear time-varying system is contractive, then it is incrementally exponentially stable. Second, leveraging this result, under mild restrictions, an approach is proposed to design feedforward…

In this report we deal with the problem of global output feedback stabilization of a class of $n$-dimensional nonlinear positive systems possessing a one-dimensional unknown, though measured, part. We first propose our main result, an…

Controlling complex reaction networks is a fundamental challenge in the fields of physics, biology, and systems engineering. Here, we prove a general principle for catalytic reaction systems with kinetics where the reaction order and the…

We introduce a weak asymptotic version of nonlinear contraction, termed \emph{asymptotic pointwise contraction}. For a mapping on a metric space, this notion requires the existence of a sequence of functions that dominate the distances…

We consider a class of nonlinear differential equations that arises in the study of chemical reaction systems that are known to be locally asymptotically stable and prove that they are in fact globally asymptotically stable. More…

Adapting a counterexample recently proposed by J.L. Mancilla-Aguilar and H. Haimovich, we show here that, for time-delay systems, global asymptotic stability does not ensure that solutions converge uniformly to zero over bounded sets of…

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 this paper we present a direct adaptive control method for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with a time-varying structure. We view the nonlinear systems as composed of a finite number of ``pieces,'' which are interpolated by…

Local asymptotic stabilizability is a topic of great theoretical interest and practical importance. Broadly, if a system $\dot{x} = f(x,u)$ is locally asymptotically stabilizable, we are guaranteed a feedback controller $u(x)$ that forces…

In this paper, an asymptotic stability proof for a class of methods for inexact nonlinear model predictive control is presented. General Q-linearly convergent online optimization methods are considered and an asymptotic stability result is…

For stochastic systems with nonvanishing noise, i.e., at the desired state the noise port does not vanish, it is impossible to achieve the global stability of the desired state in the sense of probability. This bad property also leads to…

Sampling arises simultaneously with input and output delays in networked control systems. When the delay is left uncompensated, the sampling period is generally required to be sufficiently small, the delay sufficiently short, and, for…

This paper deals with an analysis and design of robust, state-feedback control law uniform-asymptotically stabilizing at origin the system consisting of coupled $n$th--order ordinary differential equations in the presence of a non-vanishing…

We study a system of all-to-all weakly coupled uniformly expanding circle maps in the thermodynamic limit. The state of the system is described by a probability measure and its evolution is given by the action of a nonlinear operator, also…

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…

A control design approach is developed for a general class of uncertain strict-feedback-like nonlinear systems with dynamic uncertain input nonlinearities with time delays. The system structure considered in this paper includes a nominal…

We consider the time-dependent nonlinear system $\dot q(t)=u(t)X(q(t))+(1-u(t))Y(q(t))$, where $q\in\R^2$, $X$ and $Y$ are two %$C^\infty$ smooth vector fields, globally asymptotically stable at the origin and $u:[0,\infty)\to\{0,1\}$ is an…
