This textbook presents, in a mathematically precise manner, a unified introduction to deterministic control theory. With the exception of a few more advanced concepts required for the final part of the book, the presentation requires only a knowledge of basic facts from linear algebra, differential equations, and calculus.
In addition to classical concepts and ideas, the author covers the stabilization of nonlinear systems using topological methods, realization theory for nonlinear systems, impulsive control and positive systems, the control of rigid bodies, the stabilization of infinite dimensional systems, and the solution of minimum energy problems.
This second edition includes new chapters that introduce a variety of topics, such as controllability with vanishing energy, boundary control systems, and delayed systems. With additional proofs, theorems, results, and a substantially larger index, this new edition will be an invaluable resource for students and researchers of control theory.
Mathematical Control Theory: An Introduction will be ideal for a beginning graduate course in mathematical control theory, or for self-study by professionals needing a complete picture of the mathematical theory that underlies the applications of control theory.
From reviews of the first edition:
At last! We did need an introductory textbook on control which can be read, understood, and enjoyed by anyone. Gian-Carlo Rota, The Bulletin of Mathematics Books
It covers a remarkable number of topics...The exposition is excellent, and the book is a joy to read. A novel one-semester course covering both linear and nonlinear systems could be given...The book is an excellent one for introducing a mathematician to control theory. Bulletin of the AMS
Indeed, for mathematicians who look for the basic ideas or a general picture about the main branches of control theory, I believe this book can provide anexcellent bridge to this area. IEEE Control Systems Magazine
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"It enables the reader to acquire a capability to construct and analyze biological systems. The mathematical exposition is clear and with detailed explanations of important ideas and interesting results. The book takes an expository approach where the continuous prose intersects with several carefully constructed diagrams and figures. . it contains an extensive list of references and can serve as a reference text for researchers in this field." (Stéphanie Abou and Anita T. Layton, SIAM Review, Vol. 63 (4), December, 2021)
"An appendix summarizes important mathematical background results. The treatment of both finite- and infinite-dimensional systems is a unique feature of the book . . the book remains largely a book on classical methods, though one of highest mathematical standards. The book is decidedly mathematical in style, with complete proofs of all results, stringent mathematical argumentation, and a traditional definition-theorem-proof structure. . this second edition of the classical text remains a highly valuable contribution to the field." (Lars Grüne, SIAM Review, Vol. 63 (2), September, 2021)
"This new edition should be a useful resource for students and researchers of control theory." (IEEE Control Systems Magazine, Vol. 41 (2), April, 2021)
