Robust Asymptotic Stabilization of Nonlinear Systems with Non-Hyperbolic Zero Dynamics (2008)
Marconi, L., Praly, L., Isidori, A.
In this paper we present a general tool to handle the presence of zero dynamics which are asymptotically but not locally exponentially stable in problems of robust nonlinear stabilization by output...
This subject is dedicated to student interested in mathematics (in particular algebraic topology and differential geometry). The main goal of this PhD is to develop the study of homogeneous systems....
On Brockett's Necessary Condition for Stabilizability (2007)
In this paper we consider control systems of the form x = f(x; u) and show that Brockett's necessary condition for stabilizability via smooth feedback still persists if f is continuous and the...

[8] R. Marino and P. Toméi, “Global adaptive output feedback control
Morin, Pascal, Murray, Richard M., Praly, L.
Motivated by some recent results on the stabilization of homogeneous systems, we present a gain-scheduling approach for the stabilization of non-linear systems. Given a one-parameter family of...

Introduction A common task for an engineer is to design a system which reacts to stimuli in some specific and desirable way. One way to characterize appropriate behavior is through the formalism of...
A Robust Adaptive Minimum Variance Controller (1989)
L. Praly, Sheng-fuu Lin, P.R. Kumar
This paper addresses the twin questions of performance and robustness of an adaptive controller for single-input, single-output, linear, stochastic systems. We present an adaptive controller that has...
We examine the problem of obtaining adaptive control laws which tune themselves to control laws minimizing the variance of the tracking error between the output of the linear ARMAX system and a...
