Motivated by singular limits for long-time optimal control problems, we investigate a class of parameter-dependent parabolic equations. First, we prove a turnpike result, uniform with respect to the parameters within a suitable regularity…

We examine the minimization of a quadratic cost functional composed of the output and the final state of abstract infinite-dimensional evolution equations in view of existence of solutions and optimality conditions. While the initial value…

Controlling large-scale cyber-physical systems necessitates optimal distributed policies, relying solely on local real-time data and limited communication with neighboring agents. However, finding optimal controllers remains challenging,…

In this paper, we consider the infinite horizon optimal control problem for nonlinear systems. Under the conditions of controllability of the linearized system around the origin, and nonlinear controllability of the system to a terminal set…

The paper is concerned with a general optimization problem for a nonlinear control system, in the presence of a running cost and a terminal cost, with free terminal time. We prove the existence of a patchy feedback whose trajectories are…

A counterexample to uniqueness of global minimizers of semilinear optimal control problems is given. The lack of uniqueness occurs for a special choice of the state-target in the cost functional. Our arguments show also that, for some…

This work is concerned with an optimal control problem governed by a non-smooth quasilinear elliptic equation with a nonlinear coefficient in the principal part that is locally Lipschitz continuous and directionally but not G\^ateaux…

We consider a problem of optimal distribution of conductivities in a system governed by a non-local diffusion law. The problem stems from applications in optimal design and more specifically topology optimization. We propose a novel…

We consider a minimal controllability problem (MCP), which determines the minimum number of input nodes for a descriptor system to be structurally controllable. We investigate the "forbidden nodes" in descriptor systems, denoting nodes that…

The class of port-Hamiltonian systems incorporates many physical models, such as mechanical systems in the finite-dimensional case and wave and beam equations in the infinite-dimensional case. In this paper we study a subclass of linear…

We construct optimally robust port-Hamiltonian realizations of a given rational transfer function that represents a passive system. We show that the realization with a maximal passivity radius is a normalized port-Hamiltonian one. Its…

A multi-class single-server queueing model with finite buffers, in which scheduling and admission of customers are subject to control, is studied in the moderate deviation heavy traffic regime. A risk-sensitive cost set over a finite time…

An optimal control of a steady state thermistor problem is considered, where the convective boundary coefficient is taken as the control variable. A distinctive feature of this paper is that the problem is considered in arbitrary…

In this note, we consider port-Hamiltonian structures in numerical optimal control of ordinary differential equations. By introducing a novel class of nonlinear monotone port-Hamiltonian (pH) systems, we show that the primal-dual gradient…

Geometric optimal control utilizes tools from differential geometry to analyze the structure of a problem to determine the control and state trajectories to reach a desired outcome while minimizing some cost function. For a controlled…

This paper proposes a Nonlinear Model-Predictive Control (NMPC) method capable of finding and converging to energy-efficient regular oscillations, which require no control action to be sustained. The approach builds up on the recently…
