Mean field optimal control problems are a class of optimization problems that arise from optimal control when applied to the many body setting. In the noisy case one has a set of controllable stochastic processes and a cost function that is…

We study controllability of a Partial Differential Equation of transport type, that arises in crowd models. We are interested in controlling such system with a control being a Lipschitz vector field on a fixed control set $\omega$. We prove…

In this paper, we use tools from sheaf theory to model and analyze optimal network control problems and their associated discrete relaxations. We consider a general problem setting in which pieces of equipment and their causal relations are…

The paper deals with a problem of control of a system characterized by the fact that the influence of controls on the dynamics of certain functions of state variables (called observables) is relatively weak and the rates of change of these…

We study diffusions, variational principles and associated boundary value problems on directed graphs with natural weightings. Using random walks and exit times, we associate to certain subgraphs (domains) a pair of sequences, each of which…

We study the existence and uniqueness of a solution for the multivalued stochastic differential equation with delay (the multivalued term is of subdifferential type): \[ \left\{\begin{array} [c]{r} dX(t)+\partial\varphi\left(X(t)\right)…

We consider adaptive control problem in presence of nonlinear parametrization of uncertainties in the model. It is shown that despite traditional approaches require for domination in the control loop during adaptation, it is not often…

We consider $k$-dimensional discrete-time systems of the form $x_{n+1}=F(x_n,\ldots,x_{n-k+1})$ in which the map $F$ is continuous and monotonic in each one of its arguments. We define a partial order on $\mathbb{R}^{2k}_+$, compatible with…

In this paper, we propose a second-order dynamical system with a smoothing effect for solving paramonotone variational inequalities. Under standard assumptions, we prove that the trajectories of this dynamical system converges to a solution…

This paper investigates the stability properties of a nonlinear fractional differential equation with two discrete delays and a delay-dependent coefficient. Such equations arise in various biological and control systems where temporal…

For a general nonlinear control system, we study the problem of small time local attainability of a target which is the closure of an open set. When the target is smooth and locally the sublevel set of a smooth function, we develop second…

An in-domain finite dimensional controller for a class of distributed parameter systems on a one-dimensional spatial domain formulated under the port-Hamiltonian framework is presented. Based on [25] where positive feedback and a late…

We construct Green's functions for divergence form, second order parabolic systems in non-smooth time-varying domains whose boundaries are locally represented as graph of functions that are Lipschitz continuous in the spatial variables and…

We study the minimum-time damping of a physical pendulum by means of a bounded control. In the similar problem for a linear oscillator each optimal trajectory possesses a finite number of control switchings from the maximal to the minimal…

Elastic structures can be designed to exhibit precise, complex, and exotic functions. While recent work has focused on the quasistatic limit governed by force balance, the mechanics at a finite driving rate are governed by Newton's…

We study, using an optimal control point of view, higher-order variational problems of Herglotz type with time delay. Main results are higher-order Euler-Lagrange and DuBois-Reymond necessary optimality conditions as well as a higher-order…

The paper introduces a Poisson-type problem on a mixed-dimensional structure combining a Euclidean domain and a lower-dimensional self-similar component touching a compact surface (interface). The lower-dimensional piece is a so-called…

We study small perturbations of the Dirichlet problems for second order elliptic equations that degenerate on the boundary. The limit of the solution, as the perturbation tends to zero, is calculated. The result is based on a certain…

We study a class of infinite-dimensional singular stochastic control problems with applications in economic theory and finance. The control process linearly affects an abstract evolution equation on a suitable partially-ordered…

We consider the problem of minimizing the continuous valued total variation subject to different unary terms on trees and propose fast direct algorithms based on dynamic programming to solve these problems. We treat both the convex and the…
