Controllability of invariant control systems at uniform time

Víctor Ayala, José Ayala-Hoffmann, Ivan de Azevedo Tribuzy (2009)

Kybernetika

Let G be a compact and connected semisimple Lie group and Σ an invariant control systems on G . Our aim in this work is to give a new proof of Theorem 1 proved by Jurdjevic and Sussmann in [6]. Precisely, to find a positive time s Σ such that the system turns out controllable at uniform time s Σ . Our proof is different, elementary and the main argument comes directly from the definition of semisimple Lie group. The uniform time is not arbitrary. Finally, if A = t > 0 A ( t , e ) denotes the reachable set from arbitrary...

Controllability of right invariant systems on semi-simple Lie groups

R. El Assoudi, J. Gauthier, I. Kupka (1995)

We deal with controllability of right invariant control systems on semi-simple Lie groups. We recall the history of the problem and the successive results. We state the final complete result, with a sketch of proof.

Convex Hull Property and Exclosure Theorems for H-Minimal Hypersurfaces in Carnot Groups

Francescopaolo Montefalcone (2016)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

In this paper, we generalize to sub-Riemannian Carnot groups some classical results in the theory of minimal submanifolds. Our main results are for step 2 Carnot groups. In this case, we will prove the convex hull property and some “exclosure theorems” for H-minimal hypersurfaces of class C2 satisfying a Hörmander-type condition.

Convexity and almost convexity in groups

Witold Jarczyk (2013)

Banach Center Publications

We give a review of results proved and published mostly in recent years, concerning real-valued convex functions as well as almost convex functions defined on a (not necessarily convex) subset of a group. Analogues of such classical results as the theorems of Jensen, Bernstein-Doetsch, Blumberg-Sierpiński, Ostrowski, and Mehdi are presented. A version of the Hahn-Banach theorem with a convex control function is proved, too. We also study some questions specific for the group setting, for instance...
