This work is concerned with an optimal control problem on a Riemannian manifold, for which two typical cases are considered. The first case is when the endpoint is free. For this case, the control set is assumed to be a separable metric…

The BKT transition in low-dimensional systems with a $U(1)$ global symmetry separates a gapless conformal phase from a trivially gapped, disordered phase, and is driven by vortex proliferation. Recent developments in modified Villain…

We consider the gradient method with variable step size for minimizing functions that are definable in o-minimal structures on the real field and differentiable with locally Lipschitz gradients. We prove that global convergence holds if…

Influence diagram is a graphical representation of belief networks with uncertainty. This article studies the structural properties of a probabilistic model in an influence diagram. In particular, structural controllability theorems and…

We establish three tractable, jointly sufficient conditions for the control landscapes of non-linear control systems to be trap free comparable to those now well known in quantum control. In particular, our results encompass end-point…

This article gives a necessary first step to understanding the critical set phenomenon for the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation posed on interval $[0,L]$ considering the Neumann boundary conditions with only one control input. We showed…

In this article, we give a condition for the global controllability of affine nonlinear control systems with drifts on Euclidean spaces. Under regularity assumptions, the condition is necessary and sufficient in the codimension-1 and…

We prove the following result: if a continuous vector field $F$ is Lipschitz when restricted to the hypersurfaces determined by a suitable foliation and a transversal condition is satisfied at the initial condition, then $F$ determines a…

In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient condition for local controllability around closed orbits for general smooth control systems. We also prove that any such system on a compact manifold has a closed orbit.

As an application of the Bochner formula, we prove that if a $2$-dimensional Riemannian manifold admits a non-trivial smooth tangent vector field $X$ then its Gauss curvature is the divergence of a tangent vector field, constructed from…

Vector field guided path following (VF-PF) algorithms are fundamental in robot navigation tasks, but may not deliver the desirable performance when robots encounter singular points where the vector field becomes zero. The existence of…

We consider a dissipative vector field which is represented by a nearly-integrable Hamiltonian flow to which a non symplectic force is added, so that the phase space volume is not preserved. The vector field depends upon two parameters,…

In this paper, we study the problem of controllability of Schr\"odinger equation. We prove that the system is exactly controllable in infinite time to any position. The proof is based on an inverse mapping theorem for multivalued functions.…

We prove boundary controllability results for wave equations (with lower-order terms) on Lorentzian manifolds with time-dependent geometry satisfying suitable curvature bounds. The main ingredient is a novel global Carleman estimate on…

We show that, by simple modifications of the usual three-level $\Lambda$-type scheme used for obtaining electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT), phase dependence in the response of the atomic medium to a weak probe field can be…

We describe a new class of positive linear discrete-time switching systems for which the problems of stability or stabilizability can be resolved constructively. This class generalizes the class of systems with independently switching state…

This paper continues the investigations from [7] and is concerned with the derivation of first-order conditions for a control constrained optimization problem governed by a non-smooth elliptic PDE. The control enters the state equation not…

In finite dimensions, controllability of bilinear quantum control systems can be decided quite easily in terms of the "Lie algebra rank condition" (LARC), such that only the systems Lie algebra has to be determined from a set of generators.…

We study the problem of optimally managing an inventory with unknown demand trend. Our formulation leads to a stochastic control problem under partial observation, in which a Brownian motion with non-observable drift can be singularly…

The classical inward pointing condition (IPC) for a control system whose state $x$ is constrained in the closure $C:=\bar\Omega$ of an open set $\Omega$ prescribes that at each point of the boundary $x\in \partial \Omega$ the intersection…
