We consider an abstract nonlinear second order evolution equation, inspired by some models for damped oscillations of a beam subject to external loads or magnetic fields, and shaken by a transversal force. When there is no external force,…

Understanding how time delays impact the stability of a delay differential equation is important for modeling many natural and technological systems that experience time delays. Here we introduce a new stability criterion for…

We study the stability of general $n$-dimensional nonautonomous linear differential equations with infinite delays. Delay independent criteria, as well as criteria depending on the size of some finite delays are established. In the first…

We investigate a control process described by a linear system of ordinary differential equations with a noise of special type acting to the control parameter. As the cost functional the probability of the final state vector to enter to a…

This paper is concerned with second-order optimality conditions for Tikhonov regularized optimal control problems governed by the obstacle problem. Using a simple observation that allows to characterize the structure of optimal controls on…

The Pontryagin's Maximum Principle allows, in most cases, the design of optimal controls of affine nonlinear control systems by considering the sign of a smooth function. There are cases, although, where this function vanishes on a whole…

We characterize the optimal control for a class of singular stochastic control problems as the unique solution to a related Skorokhod reflection problem. The considered optimization problems concern the minimization of a discounted cost…

A new class of control problems is discussed - homeostasis control. Homeostasis control problems can be considered as control problems with a given target set, in particular, as a problem of stabilizing the values of some target function,…

In this paper we provide a thorough, rigorous theoretical framework to assess optimality guarantees of sampling-based algorithms for drift control systems: systems that, loosely speaking, can not stop instantaneously due to momentum. We…

As is known, the problems for the differential equations with continuously changing order of the derivatives are not considered completely. In this paper we consider the initial and boundary value problems for this type of linear ordinary…

In this paper we consider second order evolution equations with unbounded dynamic feedbacks. Under a regularity assumption we show that observability properties for the undamped problem imply decay estimates for the damped problem. We…

In this work, we study a boundary control problem for the evolutionary Navier-Stokes equations, under mixed boundary conditions, in two dimensions. The cost functional here considered is of quadratic type, depending on both state and…

In this work, we consider the two dimensional tidal dynamics equations in a bounded domain and address some optimal control problems like total energy minimization, minimization of dissipation of energy of the flow, etc. We also examine an…

We consider the variational discretization of a linear-quadratic optimal control problem with pointwise control and state constraints. In order to allow for a Fr\'echet smooth norm, the problem is reformulated by means of a reflexive…

First order semi-linear coupling of scalar hypoelliptic equations of second order leads to a natural class of incompressible Navier Stokes equation systems, which encompasses systems with variable viscosity and essentially Navier Stokes…

In this paper, we investigate the multi-objective optimal control problem of ordinary differential equations on Riemannian manifolds. We first obtain the second-order necessary conditions for weak Pareto optimal solutions for…

This paper studies the problem of output agreement in networks of nonlinear dynamical systems under time-varying disturbances. Necessary and sufficient conditions for output agreement are derived for the class of incrementally passive…

An autonomous system of ordinary differential equations in the plane with a centre-saddle bifurcation is considered. The influence of time damped perturbations with power-law asymptotics is investigated. The particular solutions tending at…

We consider the combined influence of linear damping and noise on a dynamical finite-time-singularity model for a single degree of freedom. We find that the noise effectively resolves the finite-time-singularity and replaces it by a…

In this paper we study, from a variational and geometrical point of view, second-order variational problems on Lie groupoids and the construction of variational integrators for optimal control problems. First, we develop variational…
