In [1], we inaugurated a new area of optimal control (OC) theory that we called "periodic fractional OC theory," which was developed to find optimal ways to periodically control a fractional dynamic system. The typical mathematical…

A chemostat enables long-term, continuous, exponential-phase growth in an environment limited as prescribed by the researcher. It is thus a potent tool for laboratory evolution - selecting for strains with desired phenotypes. However,…

This paper presents a Fourier integral pseudospectral (FIPS) method for a general class of nonlinear, periodic optimal control (OC) problems with equality and/or inequality constraints and sufficiently smooth solutions. In this scheme, the…

This paper introduces a new accurate model for periodic fractional optimal control problems (PFOCPs) using Riemann-Liouville (RL) and Caputo fractional derivatives (FDs) with sliding fixed memory lengths. The paper also provides a novel…

Suboptimal model predictive control is a technique that can reduce the computational cost of model predictive control (MPC) by exploiting its robustness to incomplete optimization. Instead of solving the optimal control problem exactly,…

In this paper, we present a novel pseudospectral (PS) method for solving a new class of initial-value problems (IVPs) of time-dependent one-dimensional fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs) with variable coefficients and…

A dynamical system entrains to a periodic input if its state converges globally to an attractor with the same period. In particular, for a constant input the state converges to a unique equilibrium point for any initial condition. We…

We consider the chemostat model with the substrate concentration as the single measurement. We propose a control strategy that drives the system at a steady state maximizing the gas production without the knowledge of the specific growth…

This paper introduces a novel fractional-order chemostat model (FOCM) incorporating Caputo fractional derivative with sliding memory (CFDS) to capture microbial memory effects in biological water treatment, addressing limitations of…

Periodic operation often emerges as the economically optimal mode in industrial processes, particularly under varying economic or environmental conditions. This paper proposes a robust model predictive control (MPC) framework for uncertain…

In this paper, we introduce a novel pseudospectral method for the numerical solution of optimal control problems governed by a parabolic distributed parameter system. The infinite-dimensional optimal control problem is reduced into a…

In this paper, a new framework for continuous-time maximum a posteriori estimation based on the Chebyshev polynomial optimization (ChevOpt) is proposed, which transforms the nonlinear continuous-time state estimation into a problem of…

We propose formulating the finite-horizon stochastic optimal control problem for colloidal self-assembly in the space of probability density functions (PDFs) of the underlying state variables (namely, order parameters). The control…

We study a continuous time stochastic optimal control problem under partial observations that are available only at discrete time instants. This hybrid setting, with continuous dynamics and intermittent noisy measurements, arises in…

A new class of stochastic processes called independent and periodically identically distributed (i.p.i.d.) processes is defined to capture periodically varying statistical behavior. A novel Bayesian theory is developed for detecting a…

This paper details a methodology to transcribe an optimal control problem into a nonlinear program for generation of the trajectories that optimize a given functional by approximating only the highest order derivatives of a given system's…

In this paper, we propose a novel computational method for solving non-linear optimal control problems. The method is based on the use of Fourier--Hermite series for approximating the action-value function arising in dynamic programming…

We consider a state-constrained optimal control problem of a system of two non-local partial-differential equations, which is an extension of the one introduced in a previous work in mathematical oncology. The aim is to minimize the tumor…

Periodic dynamical systems, distinguished by their repetitive behavior over time, are prevalent across various engineering disciplines. In numerous applications, particularly within industrial contexts, the implementation of model…

In this paper, we consider a minimum time control problem governed by a trait-structured chemostat model including mutation and one limiting substrate. Our first main result proves the well-posedness of the control-to-state mapping. We…
