Self-sustained dynamics and forced resonant oscillations in flows: cross-junction jets and sloshing liquids

Alessandro Bongarzone

In engineering, oscillatory instabilities and resonances are often considered undesirable flow features and measures are taken to avoid them. This may include avoiding certain parametric regions or implementing control and mitigation strategies. However, t ...

Self-correcting quantum many-body control using reinforcement learning with tensor networks

Friederike Metz

Quantum many-body control is a central milestone en route to harnessing quantum technologies. However, the exponential growth of the Hilbert space dimension with the number of qubits makes it challenging to classically simulate quantum many-body systems an ...

Distributed neural network control with dependability guarantees: a compositional port-Hamiltonian approach

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Luca Furieri, Muhammad Zakwan, Clara Lucía Galimberti

Large-scale cyber-physical systems require that control policies are distributed, that is, that they only rely on local real-time measurements and communication with neighboring agents. Optimal Distributed Control (ODC) problems are, however, highly intrac ...
