On a notion of entropy for reachability properties

Mahendra Singh Tomar, Majid Zamani

In this work, we introduce a notion of reachability entropy to characterize the smallest data rate which is sufficient enough to enforce reach-while-stay specification. We also def…

A small-gain theory for infinite networks via infinite-dimensional gain operators

Christoph Kawan, Majid Zamani

In this paper, we develop a new approach to study gain operators built from the interconnection gains of infinite networks of dynamical systems. Our focus is on the construction of…

Verification of Approximate Opacity via Barrier Certificates

Siyuan Liu, Majid Zamani

This paper is motivated by the increasing security concerns of cyber-physical systems. Here, we develop a discretization-free verification scheme targeting an information-flow secu…

ISS small-gain criteria for infinite networks with linear gain functions

Andrii Mironchenko, Navid Noroozi, Christoph Kawan +1

This paper provides a Lyapunov-based small-gain theorem for input-to-state stability (ISS) of networks composed of infinitely many finite-dimensional systems. We model these networ…

A Lyapunov-based ISS small-gain theorem for infinite networks of nonlinear systems

Christoph Kawan, Andrii Mironchenko, Majid Zamani

In this paper, we show that an infinite network of input-to-state stable (ISS) subsystems, admitting ISS Lyapunov functions, itself admits an ISS Lyapunov function, provided that t…

A Lyapunov-based small-gain theorem for infinite networks

Christoph Kawan, Andrii Mironchenko, Abdalla Swikir +2

This paper presents a small-gain theorem for networks composed of a countably infinite number of finite-dimensional subsystems. Assuming that each subsystem is exponentially input-…

Approximate abstractions of control systems with an application to aggregation

Stanley W. Smith, Murat Arcak, Majid Zamani

Previous approaches to constructing abstractions for control systems rely on geometric conditions or, in the case of an interconnected control system, a condition on the interconne…

Symbolic Models for Retarded Jump-Diffusion Systems

Pushpak Jagtap, Majid Zamani

In this paper, we provide for the first time an automated, correct-by-construction, controller synthesis scheme for a class of infinite dimensional stochastic systems, namely, reta…

Compositional abstraction for networks of control systems: A dissipativity approach

Majid Zamani, Murat Arcak

In this paper we propose a compositional scheme for the construction of abstractions for networks of control systems using the interconnection matrix and joint dissipativity-type p…

Approximations of Stochastic Hybrid Systems: A Compositional Approach

Majid Zamani, Matthias Rungger, Peyman Mohajerin Esfahani

In this paper we propose a compositional framework for the construction of approximations of the interconnection of a class of stochastic hybrid systems. As special cases, this cla…

Compositional Construction of Approximate Abstractions of Interconnected Control Systems

Matthias Rungger, Majid Zamani

We consider a compositional construction of approximate abstractions of interconnected control systems. In our framework, an abstraction acts as a substitute in the controller desi…

Symbolic Models for Stochastic Switched Systems: A Discretization and a Discretization-Free Approach

Majid Zamani, Alessandro Abate, Antoine Girard

Stochastic switched systems are a relevant class of stochastic hybrid systems with probabilistic evolution over a continuous domain and control-dependent discrete dynamics over a f…

Symbolic control of stochastic systems via approximately bisimilar finite abstractions

Majid Zamani, Peyman Mohajerin Esfahani, Rupak Majumdar +2

Symbolic approaches to the control design over complex systems employ the construction of finite-state models that are related to the original control systems, then use techniques…

Backstepping controller synthesis and characterizations of incremental stability

Majid Zamani, Nathan van de Wouw, Rupak Majumdar

Incremental stability is a property of dynamical and control systems, requiring the uniform asymptotic stability of every trajectory, rather than that of an equilibrium point or a…

Coordinate-invariant incremental Lyapunov functions

Majid Zamani, Rupak Majumdar

In this note, we propose coordinate-invariant notions of incremental Lyapunov function and provide characterizations of incremental stability in terms of existence of the proposed…

Backstepping design for incremental stability

Majid Zamani, Paulo Tabuada

Stability is arguably one of the core concepts upon which our understanding of dynamical and control systems has been built. The related notion of incremental stability, however, h…

Symbolic models for nonlinear control systems without stability assumptions

Majid Zamani, Giordano Pola, Manuel Mazo +1

Finite-state models of control systems were proposed by several researchers as a convenient mechanism to synthesize controllers enforcing complex specifications. Most techniques fo…
