Nechvile-Transformed Spacecraft Dynamics and Propellant Computation in the 3-Body Problem
Michael J. Dixon, Isaac M. Ross
The uncontrolled equations of motion in the Nechvile frame for the restricted three-body problem have been well-known since at least the 1960s. It would seem that adding an externa…
Unsafe at any AUC: Unlearned Lessons from Sociotechnical Disasters for Responsible AI
Joshua A. Kroll, Andrew Smart, R. Stuart Geiger +1
As automated decision-making and data-driven technologies pervade society and are used to manage consequential outcomes, understanding the technology's capabilities, limitations, a…
On The Mathematics of the Natural Physics of Optimization
I. M. Ross
A number of optimization algorithms have been inspired by the physics of Newtonian motion. Here, we ask the question: do algorithms themselves obey some ``natural laws of motion,''…
Saddle Point Evasion via Curvature-Regularized Gradient Dynamics
Liraz Mudrik, Isaac Kaminer, Sean Kragelund +1
Nonconvex optimization underlies many modern machine learning and control tasks, where saddle points pose the dominant obstacle to reliable convergence in high-dimensional settings…
Insights from Ex-Typhoon Halong (2025) -- An Arctic Cyclone of Tropical Origin
Mingshi Yang, Zhuo Wang, John E. Walsh +3
An Arctic cyclone, Ex-Typhoon Halong, produced strong winds and devastating flooding in southwestern Alaska during 11-12 October 2025. This study examines the evolution of Halong a…
A Review of Pseudospectral Optimal Control: From Theory to Flight
I. M. Ross, M. Karpenko
The home space for optimal control is a Sobolev space. The home space for pseudospectral theory is also a Sobolev space. It thus seems natural to combine pseudospectral theory with…
