Deceptive Stochastic Patrolling via Markov Chain Lifting
Yohan John, Gilberto Diaz-Garcia, Jason R. Marden +1
In this paper we propose lifted Markov Chains (MCs) as a new paradigm for deriving patrol strategies for mobile agents on an environment represented as a graph. Lifted MCs operate…
Sampled-data Systems: Stability, Contractivity and Single-iteration Suboptimal MPC
Yiting Chen, Francesco Bullo, Emiliano Dall'Anese
This paper analyzes the stability of interconnected continuous-time (CT) and discrete-time (DT) systems coupled through sampling and zero-order hold mechanisms. The DT system updat…
Perspectives on Contractivity in Control, Optimization, and Learning
Alexander Davydov, Francesco Bullo
Contraction theory is a mathematical framework for studying the convergence, robustness, and modularity properties of dynamical systems and algorithms. In this opinion paper, we pr…
Multiplayer Homicidal Chauffeur Reach-Avoid Games: A Pursuit Enclosure Function Approach
Rui Yan, Xiaoming Duan, Rui Zou +3
This paper presents a multiplayer Homicidal Chauffeur reach-avoid differential game, which involves Dubins-car pursuers and simple-motion evaders. The goal of the pursuers is to co…
Online Feedback Optimization and Singular Perturbation via Contraction Theory
Liliaokeawawa Cothren, Francesco Bullo, Emiliano Dall'Anese
In this paper, we provide a novel contraction-theoretic approach to analyze two-time scale systems, including those commonly encountered in Online Feedback Optimization (OFO). Our…
