This paper presents a stabilizing tube-based MPC synthesis for LPV systems. We employ terminal constraint sets which are required to be controlled periodically λ-contractive. Periodically (or finite-step) contractive sets are easier to compute and can be of lower complexity than “true” contractive ones, lowering the required computational effort both off-line and on-line. Under certain assumpti...

We consider contractive systems whose trajectories evolve on a compact and convex state-space. It is well-known that if the time-varying vector field of the system is periodic then the system admits a unique globally asymptotically stable periodic solution. Obtaining explicit information on this periodic solution and its dependence on various parameters is important both theoretically and in nu...

These spaces, partial metric spaces, were firs...

An analysis is given of ∗-representations of rank 2 single vertex graphs. We develop dilation theory for the nonselfadjoint algebras Aθ and Au which are associated with the commutation relation permutation θ of a 2 graph and, more generally, with commutation relations determined by a unitary matrix u in Mm(C)⊗Mn(C). We show that a defect free row contractive representation has a unique minimal ...
