We present a multilevel stochastic gradient descent method for the optimal control of systems governed by partial differential equations under uncertain input data. The gradient descent method used to find the optimal control leverages a…

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…

Distributed optimization for resource allocation problems is investigated and a sub-optimal continuous-time algorithm is proposed. Our algorithm has lower order dynamics than others to reduce burdens of computation and communication, and is…

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…

In this paper, we study numerical approximations for optimal control of a class of stochastic partial differential equations with partial observations. The system state evolves in a Hilbert space, whereas observations are given in…

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…

Probabilistic control design is founded on the principle that a rational agent attempts to match modelled with an arbitrary desired closed-loop system trajectory density. The framework was originally proposed as a tractable alternative to…

We investigate several control strategies for the transport of an excitation along a spin chain. We demonstrate that fast, high fidelity transport can be achieved using protocols designed with differentiable programming. Building on this,…

In this paper we investigate infinite horizon optimal control problems for parametrized partial differential equations. We are interested in feedback control via dynamic programming equations which is well-known to suffer from the curse of…

A parametric constrained convex optimal control problem, where the initial state is perturbed and the linear state equation contains a noise, is considered in this paper. Formulas for computing the subdifferential and the singular…

We propose a combined global-local control approach to regulate voltage and minimize power losses in distribution networks with high integration of distributed energy resources (DERs). Local controllers embed the fast acting proportional…

A continuous optimal control problem governed by an elliptic variational inequality was considered in Boukrouche-Tarzia, Comput. Optim. Appl., 53 (2012), 375-392 where the control variable is the internal energy $g$. It was proved the…

This paper addresses the problem of optimally controlling nonlinear systems with norm-bounded disturbances and parametric uncertainties while robustly satisfying constraints. The proposed approach jointly optimizes a nominal nonlinear…

In this paper we consider the problem of the optimal control of an ensemble of affine-control systems. After proving the well-posedness of the minimization problem under examination, we establish a $\Gamma$-convergence result that allows us…

This work addresses an optimal control problem constrained by a degenerate kinetic equation of parabolic-hyperbolic type. Using a hypocoercivity framework we establish the well-posedness of the problem and demonstrate that the optimal…

The study of optimal control problems under uncertainty plays an important role in scientific numerical simulations. This class of optimization problems is strongly utilized in engineering, biology and finance. In this paper, a stochastic…

This article presents a constrained policy optimization approach for the optimal control of systems under nonstationary uncertainties. We introduce an assumption that we call Markov embeddability that allows us to cast the stochastic…

We design receding horizon control strategies for stochastic discrete-time linear systems with additive (possibly) unbounded disturbances, while obeying hard bounds on the control inputs. We pose the problem of selecting an appropriate…

In this paper we will consider distributed Linear-Quadratic Optimal Control Problems dealing with Advection-Diffusion PDEs for high values of the P\'eclet number. In this situation, computational instabilities occur, both for steady and…

Designing distributed optimal controllers subject to communication constraints is a difficult problem unless structural assumptions are imposed on the underlying dynamics and information exchange structure, e.g., sparsity, delay, or spatial…
