Nonstochastic information concepts for estimation and control
— Entropy and information are crucial notions in stochastic communication systems. However, they have arguably not been as central in control theory, which has a rich tradition o...

Distributed information gathering policies under temporal logic constraints
Abstract— In this work, we present an algorithm for synthesizing distributed control policies for networks of mobile robots such that they gather the maximum amount of informatio...

Unconstrained nonlinear MPC: Performance estimates for sampled-data systems with zero order hold
— In this paper, model predictive control (MPC) schemes without stabilizing terminal constraints and/or costs are considered for continuous time systems governed by ordinary diff...

Converse control-Lyapunov function theorems for continuous-time switched linear systems
Abstract— This paper studies switching stabilization problems for continuous-time switched linear systems (SLSs). We consider the most general switching stabilizability defined ...

Single photon inverting pulse for an atom in a cavity
— This paper considers the model where a two-level atom is placed in an open cavity. We show that the atom-cavity system can be taken as a linear quantum system under the driving...
