  • Quantum Variational Calculus

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This Brief puts together two subjects, quantum and variational calculi by considering variational problems involving Hahn quantum operators. The main advantage of its results is that they are able to deal with nondifferentiable (even discontinuous) functions, which are important in applications.Possible applications in economics are discussed. Economists model time as continuous or discrete. ... Read more

  • Model-Free Stabilization by Extremum Seeking

    Series series Engineering (R0)
    With this brief, the authors present algorithms for model-free stabilization of unstable dynamic systems. An extremum-seeking algorithm assigns the role of a cost function to the dynamic system’s control Lyapunov function (clf) aiming at its minimization. The minimization of the clf drives the clf to zero and achieves asymptotic stabilization. This approach does not rely on, or require knowledge ... Read more
