Relay control of an evolution process in a Banach space in a neighborhood of an unstable stationary regime

We study a controlled evolution process whose states are characterized by points of a real Banach space and which is described by a family of semigroups in a neighborhood of an unstable stationary regime. The goal is to find control to keep the state of the process however long in the neighborhood. We find conditions under which this control is possible, and prove an existence theorem. Also, we apply the theorem to the processes described by systems of parabolic differential equations.     

Non-compact-valued stochastic control under state constraints

In the present paper, we study a necessary condition under which the solutions of a stochastic differential equation governed by unbounded control processes, remain in an arbitrarily small neighborhood of a given set of constraints. We prove that, in comparison to the classical constrained control problem with bounded control processes, a further assumption on the growth of control processes is needed in order to obtain a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of viscosity solution of the associated Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. A rather general example illustrates our main result.     

The Structure of Solutions of an Elliptic Equation with a Semiregular Degeneracy

We study an elliptic equation with semiregular degeneracy on a hyperplane and obtain sufficient conditions under which the equation has one or two families of analytic solutions in a neighborhood of the variety of degeneracy. We present expressions of solutions in the form of power series.     

Extremality,Controllability, and Abundant Subsets of Generalized Control Systems

The generalized control system that we consider in this paper is a collection of vector fields, which are measurable in the time variable and Lipschitzian in the state variable. For such system, we define the concept of an abundant subset. Our definition follows the definition of an abundant set of control functions introduced by Warga. We prove a controllability–extremality theorem for generalized control systems, which says, in essence, that either a given trajectory satisfies a type of maximum principle or a neighborhood of the endpoint of the trajectory can be covered by trajectories of an abundant subset. We apply the theorem to a control system in the classical formulation and obtain a controllability–extremality result, which is stronger, in some respects, than all previous results of this type. Finally, we apply the theorem to differential inclusions and obtain, as an easy corollary, a Pontryagin-type maximum principle for nonconvex inclusions.     

Properties of solutions of parametric time-optimal problems in a neighborhood of an abnormal point

We consider a linear time-optimal problem in which the initial state vector depends on a parameter. We analyze the dependence of the solutions on the parameter and justify rules for the identification of the structure of the solution under small variations of the parameter. Attention is mainly paid to the analysis of properties of solutions in a neighborhood of an abnormal value of the parameter for which the function of determining elements of solutions of the original family of problems has no finite derivatives with respect to the parameter. For the function of determining elements, we obtain an asymptotic expansion to fractional powers of the parameter increment.     

Existence Theorem in the Optimal Control Problem on an Infinite Time Interval

We consider the optimal control problem on an infinite time interval. The system is linear in the control, the functional is convex in the control, and the control set is convex and compact. We propose a new condition on the behavior of the functional at infinity, which is weaker than the previously known conditions, and prove the existence theorem for the solution under this condition. We consider several special cases and propose a general abstract scheme.     

Modulus of Continuity of Piecewise Analytic Functions

We obtain conditions under which the modulus of continuity of a piecewise analytic function given on a closed interval of the real axis is an analytic function in a neighborhood of zero.     

Continuity in the parameter of the minimum value of an integral functional over the solutions of an evolution control system

The problem of minimization of an integral functional with an integrand that is nonconvex with respect to the control is considered. We minimize our functional over the solution set of a nonlinear evolution control system with a time-dependent subdifferential operator in a Hilbert space. The control constraint is given by a nonconvex closed bounded set. The integrand, the control constraint, the initial conditions and the operators in the equation describing the control system all depend on a parameter. We consider, along with the original problem, the problem of minimizing an integral functional with an integrand convexified with respect to the control over the solution set of the same system, but now subject to the convexified control constraint. By a solution of the control system we mean a “trajectory–control” pair. We prove that for each value of the parameter the convexified problem has a solution, which is the limit of a minimizing sequence of the original problem, and the minimum value of the functional of the convexified problem is a continuous function of the parameter.     

Adaptive fuzzy backstepping control design for a class of pure-feedback switched nonlinear systems

In this paper, an adaptive fuzzy output tracking control approach is proposed for a class of single input and single output (SISO) uncertain pure-feedback switched nonlinear systems under arbitrary switchings. Fuzzy logic systems are used to identify the unknown nonlinear system. Under the framework of the backstepping control design and fuzzy adaptive control, a new adaptive fuzzy output tracking control method is developed. It is proved that the proposed control approach can guarantee that all the signals in the closed-loop system are semi-globally uniformly ultimately bounded (SGUUB) and the tracking error remains an adjustable neighborhood of the origin. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.     

Existence and Structure of Optimal Solutions of Infinite-Dimensional Control Problems

In this work we analyze the structure of optimal solutions for a class of infinite-dimensional control systems. We are concerned with the existence of an overtaking optimal trajectory over an infinite horizon. The existence result that we obtain extends the result of Carlson, Haurie, and Jabrane to a situation where the trajectories are not necessarily bounded. Also, we show that an optimal trajectory defined on an interval [0,τ] is contained in a small neighborhood of the optimal steady-state in the weak topology for all t ∈ [0,τ] \backslash E , where E \subset [0,τ] is a measurable set such that the Lebesgue measure of E does not exceed a constant which depends only on the neighborhood of the optimal steady-state and does not depend on τ .

Adaptive fuzzy backstepping control for a class of MIMO switched nonlinear systems with unknown control directions

In this article, an adaptive fuzzy output tracking control approach is proposed for a class of multiple‐input and multiple‐output uncertain switched nonlinear systems with unknown control directions and under arbitrary switchings. In the control design, fuzzy logic systems are used to identify the unknown switched nonlinear systems. A Nussbaum gain function is introduced into the control design and the unknown control direction problem is solved. Under the framework of the backstepping control design, fuzzy adaptive control and common Lyapunov function stability theory, a new adaptive fuzzy output tracking control method is developed. It is proved that the proposed control approach can guarantee that all the signals in the closed‐loop system are bounded and the tracking error remains an adjustable neighborhood of the origin. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Complexity 21: 155–166, 2016

Computational Control of an HIV Model

We consider a computational approach to solving an optimal control formulation of optimal drug scheduling in HIV infected individuals. The optimal control problem is transformed using the control parameterisation enhancing technique (CPET), which enables efficient computation of an optimal control using a relatively coarse discretisation. A number of numerical difficulties with the model are discussed, and for illustration, numerical examples are solved.     

Conditions for the existence of a solution of a system of differential equations close to an approximate solution

We consider nonautonomous systems of differential equations and state conditions for the existence of an exact solution in a neighborhood of an approximate one by analyzing the linear system of the first approximation in a neighborhood of the constructed approximate solution. We present conditions for the existence of a bounded solution of a linear inhomogeneous system of differential equations.     

Tracking within a time interval on the basis of data supplied by finite observers

We solve the tracking control problem, in which one should bring a trajectory of a system of linear ordinary differential equations into a neighborhood of a trajectory of another system within a given time interval. After getting into this neighborhood, one should keep the trajectory of the first subsystem in it for a time interval of given duration. For the control synthesis, we use incomplete and imprecise information on the online deviation of one trajectory from the other, which is obtained in real time from linear equations of observation. We consider distinct structures of observers, which substantially affect the solution of control problems for such systems. The equations of dynamics and admissible measurements contain uncertainty for which one knows only some hard pointwise constraints. To solve the main problem, we use an approach that can be reduced to the construction of auxiliary information sets and weakly invariant sets with a subsequent “aiming” of one set at a tube. We suggest an efficient method for an approximate solution on the basis of ellipsoidal calculus techniques. The results of the algorithm operation are illustrated by an example of the solution of a tracking control problem for two fourth-order subsystems.     

Normal Forms for Three-parameter Families of Area-preserving Maps near an Elliptic Fixed Point

We study dynamics of area-preserving maps in a neighborhood of an elliptic fixed point. We describe simplified normal forms for a fixed point of codimension 3. We also construct normal forms for a generic three-parameter family which contains such degeneracy and use normal form theory to describe generic bifurcations of periodic orbits in these families.

A new method to control chaos in an economic system

In this paper, the method to control chaos by using phase space compression is applied to economic systems. Because of economic significance of state variable in economic dynamical systems, the values of state variables are positive due to capacity constraints and financial constraints, we can control chaos by adding upper bound or lower bound to state variables in economic dynamical systems, which is different from the chaos stabilization in engineering or physics systems. The knowledge about system dynamics and the exact variety of parameters are not needed in the application of this control method, so it is very convenient to apply this method. Two kinds of chaos in the dynamic duopoly output systems are stabilized in a neighborhood of an unstable fixed point by using the chaos controlling method. The results show that performance of the system is improved by controlling chaos. In practice, owing to capacity constraints, financial constraints and cautious responses to uncertainty in the world, the firm often restrains the output, advertisement expenses, research cost etc. to confine the range of these variables’ fluctuation. This shows that the decision maker uses this method unconsciously in practice.
