We investigate the isometry groups of the left-invariant Riemannian and sub-Riemannian structures on simply connected three-dimensional Lie groups. More specifically, we determine the isometry group for each normalized structure and hence characterize for exactly which structures (and groups) the isotropy subgroup of the identity is contained in the group of automorphisms of the Lie group. It turns out (in both the Riemannian and sub-Riemannian cases) that for most structures any isometry is the...
We seek to classify the full-rank left-invariant control affine systems evolving on solvable three-dimensional Lie groups. In this paper we consider only the cases corresponding to the solvable Lie algebras of types II, IV, and V in the Bianchi-Behr classification.
We consider state space equivalence and feedback equivalence in the context of (full-rank) left-invariant control systems on Lie groups. We prove that two systems are state space equivalent (resp.~detached feedback equivalent) if and only if there exists a Lie group isomorphism relating their parametrization maps (resp. traces). Local analogues of these results, in terms of Lie algebra isomorphisms, are also found. Three illustrative examples are provided.
Any two-input left-invariant control affine system of full rank, evolving on the Euclidean group SE (2), is (detached) feedback equivalent to one of three typical cases. In each case, we consider an optimal control problem which is then lifted, the Pontryagin Maximum Principle, to a Hamiltonian system on the dual space 𝔰𝔢 (2)*. These reduced Hamilton − Poisson systems are the main topic of this paper. A qualitative analysis of each reduced system is performed. This analysis...
We classify the left-invariant control affine systems evolving on the orthogonal group . The equivalence relation under consideration is detached feedback equivalence. Each possible number of inputs is considered; both the homogeneous and inhomogeneous systems are covered. A complete list of class representatives is identified and controllability of each representative system is determined.
