A Numerical Investigation of Extremum-Seeking-Based Command Generation for Adaptively Controlled Systems

Jhon Manuel Portella Delgado, Aidan Rice, Jacob C. Vander Schaaf +1

We develop an adaptive feedback control technique that combines an extremum-seeking-based command generator (ECG) with indirect adaptive control. In particular, ECG is used to gene…

A Constraint-Lifting Framework for Safe and Stable Nonlinear Control

Jhon Manuel Portella Delgado, Ankit Goel

This paper presents a constraint-lifting control framework for designing stabilizing controllers that guarantee the forward invariance of a prescribed safe set. State-of-the-art sa…

State-Constrained Control of Discrete-Time Nonlinear Systems via Constraint Lifting

Jhon Manuel Portella Delgado, Ankit Goel

This paper presents a constraint-enforcing control framework for a class of discrete-time strict-feedback nonlinear systems. The objective is to guarantee closed-loop stability whi…

Adaptive Constraint-Lifting Control with Stability and Invariance Guarantees

Jhon Manuel Portella Delgado, Ankit Goel

This paper develops an adaptive tracking controller for a class of nonlinear systems with parametric uncertainty subject to state constraints. The system is characterized by a stri…

Adaptive Fidelity-Based Density Tracking for Open Quantum Systems

Jhon Manuel Portella Delgado, Ankit Goel

This paper presents an online learning-based adaptive control framework for density-matrix tracking in a two-level Lindblad-Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan (LGKS) quantum system, in w…

Computing Invariant Zeros of a MIMO Linear System Using State-Space Realization

Jhon Manuel Portella Delgado, Ankit Goel

Poles of a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) linear system can be computed by solving an eigenvalue problem; however, the problem of computing its invariant zeros is equivalent to a…
