Deadbeat control, pole placement, and LQ regulation

Vladimír Kučera (1999)

Kybernetika

Deadbeat control, a typical example of linear control strategies in discrete- time systems, is shown to be a special case of the linear-quadratic regulation. This result is obtained by drawing on the parallels between the state-space and the transfer-function design techniques.

Decomposable hulls of multifunctions

Andrzej Nowak, Celina Rom (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Let F be a multifunction with values in Lₚ(Ω, X). In this note, we study which regularity properties of F are preserved when we consider the decomposable hull of F.

Decomposition of large-scale stochastic optimal control problems

Kengy Barty, Pierre Carpentier, Pierre Girardeau (2010)

RAIRO - Operations Research

In this paper, we present an Uzawa-based heuristic that is adapted to certain type of stochastic optimal control problems. More precisely, we consider dynamical systems that can be divided into small-scale subsystems linked through a static almost sure coupling constraint at each time step. This type of problem is common in production/portfolio management where subsystems are, for instance, power units, and one has to supply a stochastic power demand at each time step. We outline the framework...

Decrease of C1,1 property in vector optimization

Dušan Bednařík, Karel Pastor (2009)

RAIRO - Operations Research

In the paper we generalize sufficient and necessary optimality conditions obtained by Ginchev, Guerraggio, Rocca, and by authors with the help of the notion of ℓ-stability for vector functions.

Degenerate Eikonal equations with discontinuous refraction index

Pierpaolo Soravia (2006)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study the Dirichlet boundary value problem for eikonal type equations of ray light propagation in an inhomogeneous medium with discontinuous refraction index. We prove a comparison principle that allows us to obtain existence and uniqueness of a continuous viscosity solution when the Lie algebra generated by the coefficients satisfies a Hörmander type condition. We require the refraction index to be piecewise continuous across Lipschitz hypersurfaces. The results characterize the value...

Degenerating Cahn-Hilliard systems coupled with mechanical effects and complete damage processes

Christian Heinemann, Christiane Kraus (2014)

Mathematica Bohemica

This paper addresses analytical investigations of degenerating PDE systems for phase separation and damage processes considered on nonsmooth time-dependent domains with mixed boundary conditions for the displacement field. The evolution of the system is described by a degenerating Cahn-Hilliard equation for the concentration, a doubly nonlinear differential inclusion for the damage variable and a quasi-static balance equation for the displacement field. The analysis is performed on a time-dependent...

Delay Dynamics of Cancer and Immune Cell Model

D. Adongo, K.R. Fister (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We investigate optimal control of a cancer-immune cell interactive model with delay in the interphase compartment. By applying the optimal control theory, we seek to minimize the cost associated with the chemotherapy drug, minimize the accumulation of cancer cells, and increase the immune cell presence. Optimality conditions and characterization of the control are provided. Numerical analyses are given to enhance the understanding of the difficulties...

Delay perturbed evolution problems involving time dependent subdifferential operators

Soumia Saïdi, Mustapha Fateh Yarou (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

We investigate in the present paper, the existence and uniqueness of solutions for functional differential inclusions involving a subdifferential operator in the infinite dimensional setting. The perturbation which contains the delay is single-valued, separately measurable, and separately Lipschitz. We prove, without any compactness condition, that the problem has one and only one solution.

Dense Subdifferentiability and Trustworthiness for Arbitrary Subdifferentials

Jules, Florence, Lassonde, Marc (2010)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 49J52, 49J50, 58C20, 26B09.We show that the properties of dense subdifferentiability and of trustworthiness are equivalent for any subdifferential satisfying a small set of natural axioms. The proof relies on a remarkable property of the subdifferential of the inf-convolution of two (non necessarily convex) functions. We also show the equivalence of the dense subdifferentiability property with other basic properties of subdifferentials such as a weak* Lipschitz...
