We consider a bilinear control problem for the wave equation on a torus of arbitrary dimension. We show that the system is globally approximately controllable in arbitrarily small times from a dense family of initial states. The control…
Real physical systems are only understood, experimentally or theoretically, to a finite resolution so in their analysis there is generally an ignorance of possible short-range phenomena. It is also well-known that the boundary conditions of…
Construction of immersions with "small" curvatures between Riemannian manifolds and indicating obstructions to such immersions
We consider output trajectory tracking for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems whose internal dynamics may be modelled by infinite-dimensional systems which are bounded-input, bounded-output stable. We describe under which conditions…
Two subsets of a given set are path-disconnected if they lie in different connected components of the larger set. Verification of path-disconnectedness is essential in proving the infeasibility of motion planning and trajectory optimization…
Consider a finite ground set $E$, a set of feasible solutions $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^{E}$, and a class of objective functions $\mathcal{C}$ defined on $X$. We are interested in subsets $S$ of $E$ that control $X$ in the sense that we can…
The phenomenon of wave packet diffraction in space and time is described. It consists in a diffraction pattern whose spatial location progresses with time. The pattern is produced by wave packet quantum scattering off an attractive or…
Quantum superposition is often phrased as the ability to add state vectors. In practice, however, the physical quantity is a ray (a rank-one projector), so each input specifies only a projector and leaves a gauge freedom in the phases of…
Invisibility cloak capable of hiding an object can be achieved by properly manipulating electromagnetic field. Such a remarkable ability has been shown in transformation and ray optics. Alternatively, it may be realistic to create a spatial…
We analyze the sidewise controllability for the variable coefficients one-dimensional wave equation. The control is acting on one extreme of the string with the aim that the solution tracks a given path at the other free end. This sidewise…
This paper is concerned with the inverse obstacle scattering problem with phaseless far-field data at a fixed frequency. The main difficulty of this problem is the so-called translation invariance property of the modulus of the far-field…
This paper introduces a method for effectively controlling the movement of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) within a tunnel. The primary challenge of this problem lies in the UAV's exposure to nonlinear distance-dependent torques and forces…
An invisibility cloak that can hide an arbitrary object external to the cloak itself has not been devised before. In this Letter, we introduce a novel way to design a remote cloaking device that makes any object located at a certain…
It was shown in \cite{bloch2000optimal} that an optimal control formulation for incompressible ideal fluid flow yields Euler's equations. In this paper, we consider a variational obstacle-avoidance formulation for incompressible ideal flows…
This paper is concerned with a new type of inverse obstacle problem governed by a variable-order time-fraction diffusion equation in a bounded domain. The unknown obstacle is a region where the space dependent variable-order of fractional…
Scattering of electromagnetic (EM) waves by many small particles, embedded in a given medium, is studied. Physical properties of the particles are described by their boundary impedances. The limiting equation is obtained for the effective…
The control system described by Urysohn type integral equation is considered where the system is nonlinear with respect to the phase vector and is affine with respect to the control vector. The control functions are chosen from the closed…
The theory of acoustic wave scattering by many small bodies is developed for bodies with impedance boundary condition. It is shown that if one embeds many small particles in a bounded domain, filled with a known material, then one can…
Consider the acoustic wave equation with unknown, not necessarily smooth, wave speed $c$. We propose and study an iterative control procedure that erases the history of a wave field up to a given depth in a medium, without any knowledge of…
An array of a finite number waveguides, driven laterally by injecting light at the outer waveguides, is considered. The array is modeled by a discrete nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation. It has been shown [Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 243902…
