The paper considers a stabilizing stochastic control which can be applied to a variety of unstable and even chaotic maps. Compared to previous methods introducing control by noise, we relax assumptions on the class of maps, as well as…

Within this chapter, we discuss control in the coefficients of an obstacle problem. Utilizing tools from H-convergence, we show existence of optimal solutions. First order necessary optimality conditions are obtained after deriving…

In this paper, we present a geometric approach for computing controlled invariant sets for hybrid control systems. While the problem is well studied in the ellipsoidal case, this family is quite conservative for constrained or switched…

In this paper, we discuss the approximate controllability for control systems governed by stochastic evolution hemivariational inequalities in Hilbert spaces. The interest in studying this type of equation comes from its application in some…

Homeostasis is a regulatory mechanism that keeps a specific variable close to a set value as other variables fluctuate. The notion of homeostasis can be rigorously formulated when the model of interest is represented as an input-output…

This paper considers a class of stochastic control problems with implicitly defined objective functions, which are the sources of time-inconsistency. We study the closed-loop equilibrium solutions in a general controlled diffusion…

In formation control, an ensemble of autonomous agents is required to stabilize at a given configuration in the plane, doing so while agents are allowed to observe only a subset of the ensemble. As such, formation control provides a rich…

We propose a novel reformulation of the stochastic optimal control problem as an approximate inference problem, demonstrating, that such a interpretation leads to new practical methods for the original problem. In particular we characterise…

We consider homogenization problems in the framework of deterministic optimal control when the dynamics and running costs are completely different in two (or more) complementary domains of the space $\R^N$. For such optimal control…

Homeostasis is concerned with regulatory mechanisms, present in biological systems, where some specific variable is kept close to a set value as some external disturbance affects the system. Mathematically, the notion of homeostasis can be…

The problem of robustly, asymptotically stabilizing a point (or a set) with two output-feedback hybrid controllers is considered. These control laws may have different objectives, e.g., the closed-loop systems resulting with each controller…

When a robotic system is redundant with respect to a given task, the remaining degrees of freedom can be used to satisfy additional objectives. With current robotic systems having more and more degrees of freedom, this can lead to an entire…

We study the application of a generalized form of the level set method used in classical physical contexts to quantum optimal control situations. The set of OCT equations needed to keep the expectation value of an observable constant is…

For a class of quasi-variational inequalities (QVIs) of obstacle-type the stability of its solution set and associated optimal control problems are considered. These optimal control problems are non-standard in the sense that they involve…

In a recent paper [Phys. Rev. E 57, p. 1550 (1998)] we demonstrated that the symmetries of the evolution equation and the target state have a profound effect on the selection of the admissible control parameters. In the present paper we…

The distinction between "healthy" and "unhealthy" patients is commonly based on single, discrete values taken at an isolated point in time (e.g., blood pressure or core temperature). Perhaps a more robust and insightful diagnosis can be…

Scheduling control problems for a family of unitary networks under heavy traffic with general interarrival and service times, probabilistic routing and an infinite horizon discounted linear holding cost are studied. Diffusion control…

A novel method for control of dynamical systems, proposed in the paper, ensures an output signal belonging to the given set at any time. The method is based on a special change of coordinates such that the initial problem with given…

Introduction of renewable generation leads to significant reduction of inertia in power system, which deteriorates the quality of frequency control. This paper suggests a new control scheme utilizing controllable load to deal with low…

This paper focuses on the invariance control problem for discrete-time switched nonlinear systems. The proposed approach computes controlled invariant sets in a finite number of iterations and directly yields a partition-based invariance…
