On the Isospectral Nature of Minimum-Shear Covariance Control
Ralph Sabbagh, Asmaa Eldesoukey, Mahmoud Abdelgalil +1
We revisit Brockett's attention in the context of bilinear gradient flow of an ensemble, and explore an alternative formalism that aims to reduce shear by minimizing the conditioni…
Tannenbaum's gain-margin optimization meets Polyak's heavy-ball algorithm
Wuwei Wu, Jie Chen, Mihailo R. Jovanović +1
This paper highlights an apparent, yet relatively unknown link between algorithm design in optimization theory and controller synthesis in robust control. Specifically, quadratic o…
Schrödinger's control and estimation paradigm with spatio-temporal distributions on graphs
Asmaa Eldesoukey, Tryphon T. Georgiou
The problem of reconciling a prior probability law on paths with data was introduced by E. Schrödinger in 1931/32. It represents an early formulation of a maximum likelihood proble…
A matching principle for power transfer in Stochastic Thermodynamics
Olga Movilla Miangolarra, Amirhossein Taghvaei, Tryphon T. Georgiou
Gradients in temperature and particle concentration fuel many processes in the physical and biological world. In the present work we study a thermodynamic engine powered by anisotr…
Monge-Kantorovich Optimal Transport Through Constrictions and Flow-rate Constraints
Anqi Dong, Arthur Stephanovitch, Tryphon T. Georgiou
We consider the problem to transport resources/mass while abiding by constraints on the flow through constrictions along their path between specified terminal distributions. Constr…
Optimal transport through a toll
Arthur Stephanovitch, Anqi Dong, Tryphon T. Georgiou
We address the problem of optimal transport with a quadratic cost functional and a constraint on the flux through a constriction along the path. The constriction, conceptually repr…
