Control of a bicycle using virtual holonomic constraints
The problem of making a bicycle trace a strictly convex Jordan curve with bounded roll angle and bounded speed is investigated. The problem is solved by enforcing a virtual holonom...

Singular constant control trajectories and transition degeneracies in a closed 4-level quantum system
We analyze in this paper controllability aspects for a 4-dimensional quantum system. The "strong regularity" (cf. [1]) has been proven to be sufficient condition for glob...

On the observability of linear systems from random, compressive measurements
Abstract-- Recovering or estimating the initial state of a highdimensional system can require a potentially large number of measurements. In this paper, we explain how this burden ...

A design solution to the problem of adaptive output regulation for nonlinear minimum-phase systems
We propose a solution to the problem of adaptive output regulation for nonlinear minimum-phase systems that does not rely upon conventional adaptation schemes to estimate the frequ...

Decentralized task assignment in camera networks
The problem of task assignment naturally arises in multiagent multitask systems, where an optimal matching of agents and tasks is sought. This problem is a combinatorial optimizati...
