Deterministic Control Theory
In this chapter we focus our attention on the open loop control of deterministic problems. We will see that the language of deterministic control... -
Optimal Control of Stochastic Processes
Many control problems appearing for complex systems are subject to imperfectly known disturbances. As we have learned in the previous chapter, these... -
Optimization Problems
Several problems, for example Pontryagin’s maximum principle or the minimax problems of game theoretical approaches, require the determination of an... -
Chaos Control
In the previous chapters we have discussed the control theory from a mechanical and field theoretical point of view. This control theory is, of... -
Game Theory
All systems analyzed up to now were more or less predictable. That means, we had some information about the initial state and the dynamics of the... -
Control of Fields
The theoretical representation of classical mechanics and field theory is very similar in some ways. This also applies to the axiomatic structure. It... -
Nonequilibrium Statistical Physics
Although most many-body systems are beyond the technical possibilities of the mathematical calculus of mechanics, we are able to calculate the... -
Introduction
Control theory plays an important role in several .elds of economics, technological sciences, and mathematics. On the other hand, control theory is... -
Filters and Predictors
Suppose we have a system under control, described by dynamical equations of motion for the N-dimensional state vector X(t), and we have obtained an... -
Linear Quadratic Problems
Suppose we have a deterministic system under control, described by dynamical equations of motion for an N-dimensional state vector X(t). Usually,... -
A Liouville theorem for elliptic equations with a potential on infinite graphs
We investigate the validity of the Liouville property for a class of elliptic equations with a potential, posed on infinite graphs. Under suitable...

Well-posedness for Hamilton–Jacobi equations on the Wasserstein space on graphs
In this manuscript, given a metric tensor on the probability simplex, we define differential operators on the Wasserstein space of probability...

Palais–Smale sequences for the prescribed Ricci curvature functional
We obtain a complete description of divergent Palais–Smale sequences for the prescribed Ricci curvature functional on compact homogeneous spaces. As...

On the optimality and decay of p-Hardy weights on graphs
We construct optimal Hardy weights to subcritical energy functionals h associated with quasilinear Schrödinger operators on infinite graphs. Here,...

Second-order optimality conditions for set-valued optimization problems under the set criterion
This paper investigates second-order optimality conditions for general constrained set-valued optimization problems in normed vector spaces under the...

Convex Predictor–Nonconvex Corrector Optimization Strategy with Application to Signal Decomposition
Many tasks in real life scenarios can be naturally formulated as nonconvex optimization problems. Unfortunately, to date, the iterative numerical...
