ReLU Barrier Functions for Nonlinear Systems with Constrained Control: A Union of Invariant Sets Approach

Pouya Samanipour, Hasan A. Poonawala

Certifying safety for nonlinear systems with polytopic input constraints is challenging because CBF synthesis must ensure control admissibility under saturation. We propose an appr…

Geometric Conditions for Lossless Convexification in Linear Optimal Control with Discrete-Valued Inputs: Real-Time Implementation for Spacecraft Rendezvous

Felipe Arenas-Uribe, Hasan A. Poonawala, Jesse B. Hoagg

Optimal control problems with discrete-valued inputs are inherently challenging due to their mixed-integer nature, rendering them generally intractable for real-time, safety-critic…
