The subject of controlling quantum systems is not new, but concepts that have been introduced in the last decade and a half, especially that of coherent feedback, suggest new questions that broaden and deepen the field. Here we provide a…

Embedding microscopic sensors, computers and actuators into materials allows physical systems to actively monitor and respond to their environments. This leads to the possibility of creating smart matter, i.e., materials whose properties…

This paper proposes an MPC-based controller to efficiently execute multiple hierarchical tasks for underactuated and constrained robotic systems. Existing task-space controllers or whole-body controllers solve instantaneous optimization…

This paper examines the Balanced Submodular Flow Problem, that is the problem of finding a feasible submodular flow minimizing the difference between the flow values along the edges. A min-max formula is given to the problem and an…

In this lecture I give a brief review of low-dimensional few-body problems recently encountered in attempting a quantitative description of ultracold atoms and molecules confined in 2D and 1D optical lattices. Multi-channel nature of these…

After a review of linear imperfections and their causes, we discuss how to model them, the diagnostic equipment needed to monitor them, and the correction algorithms to fix the problem they cause. We first address linear systems - beam…

This paper explains some fundamental ideas of {\em feedback} control of quantum systems through the study of a relatively simple two-level system coupled to optical field channels. The model for this system includes both continuous and…

Control science is a core representative of the third industrial revolution and is so important to modern civilization. Control systems are the main subject of control science and may involve many aspects of consideration, such as hardware…

We consider relative or subjective optimization problems where the goal function and feasible set are dependent of the current state of the system under consideration. In general, they are formulated as quasi-equilibrium problems, hence…

Kinematical and dynamical properties of chaotic systems are reviewed and a few applications are described.

A dual control problem is presented for the optimal stochastic control of a system governed by partial differential equations. Relationships between the optimal values of the original and the dual problems are investigated and two duality…

We study feedback control of classical Hamiltonian systems with the controlling parameter varying slowly in time. The control aims to change system's energy. We show that the control problems can be solved with help of an adiabatic…

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…

During the past decades, quantum mechanical methods have undergone an amazing transition from pioneering investigations of experts into a wide range of practical applications, made by a vast community of researchers. First principles…

We consider the Chance Constrained Model Predictive Control problem for polynomial systems subject to disturbances. In this problem, we aim at finding optimal control input for given disturbed dynamical system to minimize a given cost…

Over the last decade we have witnessed an increasing use of data processing in embedded systems. Where in the past the data processing was limited (if present at all) to the handling of a small number of "on-off control signals", more…

Systems are growing into more complex ones for developing and maintaining. Existing systems which do not have much in common on the first look are connected, due to the technical progress, even if it was never intended that way. It is an…

Inaccurate circuits make possible the conservation of limited resources, such as energy. But effective design of such circuits requires an understanding of resulting tradeoffs between accuracy and design parameters, such as voltages and…

In this note we give an introduction to the topic of quantum control, explaining what its objectives are, and describing some of its limitations.

This paper investigates the synthesis of distributed economic control algorithms under which dynamically coupled physical systems are regulated to a variational equilibrium of a constrained convex game. We study two complementary cases: (i)…
