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…

Closed-loop positivity of feedback interconnections of positive monotone nonlinear systems is investigated. It is shown that an instantaneous gain condition on the open-loop systems which implies feedback well-posedness also guarantees…

Self-excited systems arise in numerous applications, such as biochemical systems, fluid-structure interaction, and combustion. This paper analyzes a discrete-time Lur'e system with a piecewise-linear saturation feedback nonlinearity. The…

This paper addresses the problem of robust and optimal control for the class of nonlinear quadratic systems subject to norm-bounded parametric uncertainties and disturbances, and in presence of some amplitude constraints on the control…

We examine robust output feedback control of discrete-time nonlinear systems with bounded uncertainties affecting the dynamics and measurements. Specifically, we demonstrate how to construct semi-infinite programs that produce gains to…

Discrete-time models are very convenient to simulate a nonlinear system on a computer. In order to build the discrete-time simulation models for the nonlinear feedback systems (which is a very important class of systems in many…

Self-excited systems (SES) arise in numerous applications, such as fluid-structure interaction, combustion, and biochemical systems. In support of system identification and digital control of SES, this paper analyzes discrete-time Lur'e…

We consider the problem of zeroing an error output of a nonlinear discrete-time system in the presence of constant exogenous disturbances, subject to hard convex constraints on the input signal. The design specification is formulated as a…

A shifted or misaligned feedback loop gives rise to a two-point nonlocality that is the spatial analog of a temporal delay. Important consequences of this nonlocal coupling have been found both in diffusive and in diffractive systems, and…

Frequency domain analysis of linear time-invariant (LTI) systems in feedback with static nonlinearities is a classical and fruitful topic of nonlinear systems theory. We generalize this approach beyond equilibrium stability analysis with…

We propose novel quadratic performance tests for linear discrete-time impulsive systems based on viewing these systems as feedback interconnections of some non-impulsive linear system with an impulsive operator. In order to systematically…

Late-lumping feedback design for infinite-dimensional linear systems with unbounded input operators is considered. The proposed scheme is suitable for the approximation of backstepping and flatness-based designs and relies on a…

This paper studies the linear quadratic regulation (LQR) problem of unknown discrete-time systems via dynamic output feedback learning control. In contrast to the state feedback, the optimality of the dynamic output feedback control for…

We address the output regulation problem of linear systems with non-smooth and non-periodic exogenous signals. Specifically, we first formulate and solve the full-information problem by designing a state-feedback controller. We study the…

This paper introduce the notion of output contraction that expands the contraction notion to the time-varying nonlinear systems with output. It pertains to the systems' property that any pair of outputs from the system converge to each…

This paper develops systematically the output feedback exponential stabilization for a one-dimensional unstable/anti-stable wave equation where the control boundary suffers from both internal nonlinear uncertainty and external disturbance.…

We study the exponential stabilization problem for a nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries equa- tion on bounded interval in cases where the linearized control system is not controllable. The system has Dirichlet boundary conditions at the end-points…

Two nested classes of discrete-time linear time-invariant systems, which differ by the set of periodic signals that they leave invariant, are studied. The first class preserves the property of periodic monotonicity (period-wise…

A class of nonlinear control-affine systems with bounded time-varying drift is considered. It is assumed that the control vector fields together with their iterated Lie brackets satisfy Hormander's condition in a neighborhood of the origin.…

We consider the problem of computing the maximal invariant set of discrete-time linear systems subject to a class of non-convex constraints that admit quadratic relaxations. These non-convex constraints include semialgebraic sets and other…
