Many nonlinear systems of practical interest evolve on Lie groups or on manifolds acted upon by Lie groups. Examples range from aircraft and underwater vehicles to quantum mechanic...
— Using graph theory, this paper investigates how a group of robots, endowed with local positioning (range and bearing from other robots), can be engaged in a leaderfollowing mis...
We investigate optimal control problems subject to mixed control-state constraints. The necessary conditions are stated in terms of a local minimum principle. By use of the Fischer...
Abstract-- This paper studies the stabilizability of an ndimensional quantized feedforward nonlinear system. The state of that system is first quantized into a finite number of bit...
This paper deals with optimal control problems of semilinear parabolic equations with pointwise state constraints and coupled integral state-control constraints. We obtain necessar...
