Delay-coordinate maps have been widely used recently to study nonlinear dynamical systems, where there is only access to the time series of one of their variables. Here, we show how the partial control method can be applied in this kind of…

Dynamical control of biological systems is often restricted by the practical constraint of unidirectional parameter perturbations. We show that such a restriction introduces surprising complexity to the stability of one-dimensional map…

This paper studies (single-time and multitime) optimal control problems on a nonholonomic manifold (described either by the kernel of a Gibbs-Pfaff form or by the span of appropriate vector fields). For both descriptions we analyse:…

How can one change a system, in order to change its statistical properties in a prescribed way? In this note we consider a control problem related to the theory of linear response. Given an expanding map of the unit circle with an…

We consider the set of bimodal linear systems consisting of two linear dynamics acting on each side of a given hyperplane, assuming continuity along the separating hyperplane. Focusing on the unobservable planar ones, we obtain a simple…

This paper addresses the problem of robust control of a linear discrete-time system subject to bounded disturbances and to measurement and control budget constraints. Using Q-parameterization and a polytope containment method, we prove that…

Real-world control applications in complex and uncertain environments require adaptability to handle model uncertainties and robustness against disturbances. This paper presents an online, output-feedback, critic-only, model-based…

In this paper we present a direct adaptive control method for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with a time-varying structure. We view the nonlinear systems as composed of a finite number of ``pieces,'' which are interpolated by…

This paper is concerned with the design of optimal control for finite-dimensional control-affine nonlinear dynamical systems. We introduce an optimal control problem that specifically optimizes nonlinear observability in addition to…

Linear control theory is used to develop an improved localized control scheme for spatially extended chaotic systems, which is applied to a Coupled Map Lattice as an example. The optimal arrangement of the control sites is shown to depend…

We consider the problem of transporting \nota{one probability measure into another through} the flow of a given driftless control-affine system. Under suitable regularity conditions, the controllability of the system by means of open-loop…

We develop an optimization-based framework for joint real-time trajectory planning and feedback control of feedback-linearizable systems. To achieve this goal, we define a target trajectory as the optimal solution of a time-varying…

We introduce an alternative approach for the analysis and numerical approximation of the optimal feedback control mapping. It consists in looking at a typical optimal control problem in such a way that feasible controls are mappings…

We consider the problem of discounted optimal state-feedback regulation for general unknown deterministic discrete-time systems. It is well known that open-loop instability of systems, non-quadratic cost functions and complex nonlinear…

Problem of damping of an arbitrary number of linear oscillators under common bounded control is considered. We are looking for a feedback control steering the system to the equilibrium. The obtained control is asymptotically optimal: the…

A linear output feedback control scheme is developed for a coupled map lattice system. H-infinity control theory is used to make the scheme local: both the collection of information and the feedback are implemented through an array of…

In this work, we will investigate the question of optimal control for bilinear systems with constrained endpoint. The optimal control will be characterized through a set of unconstrained minimization problems that approximate the former.…

This paper deals whith the stabilization of any UPO of a chaotic map by modulation of a control parameter. It concentrates on proportional and delayed feedback control methods. Alternative types of these methods are proposed and their…

Infinite-dimensional linear conic formulations are described for nonlinear optimal control problems. The primal linear problem consists of finding occupation measures supported on optimal relaxed controlled trajectories, whereas the dual…

We examine the problem of two-point boundary optimal control of nonlinear systems over finite-horizon time periods with unknown model dynamics by employing reinforcement learning. We use techniques from singular perturbation theory to…
