About:

Mathematical control theory is the area of applications-oriented mathematics which deals with the basic principles underlying the analysis and synthesis of the behaviour of dynamical systems.  This workshop brought together a group of internationally leading control theorists in the field of feedback stabilisation to present new research results and themes and to encourage collaboration.

The workshop's scope comprised:  

  • Feedback design tools
  • Hybrid and sampled-data control
  • Input-to-state stability and related topics
  • Multi-agent systems
  • Nonsmooth methods
  • Stabilisation of partial differential equations
