Controllability of nonlocal impulsive stochastic quasilinear integrodifferential systems

Sufficient conditions for controllability of nonlocal impulsive stochastic quasilinear integrodifferential systems in Hilbert spaces are established. The results are obtained by using evolution operator, semigroup theory and fixed point technique. As an application, an example is provided to illustrate the obtained result

Relative controllability of impulsive multi-delay differential systems

In this paper, relative controllability of impulsive multi-delay differential systems in finite dimensional space are studied. By introducing the impulsive multi-delay Gramian matrix, a necessary and sufficient condition, and the Gramian criteria, for the relative controllability of linear systems is given. Using Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem, a sufficient condition for controllability of semilinear systems is obtained. Numerically examples are given to illustrate our theoretically results

Controllability of nonlinear fractional Langevin delay systems

In this paper, we discuss the controllability of fractional Langevin delay dynamical systems represented by the fractional delay differential equations of order 0 < α,β ≤ 1. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the controllability of linear fractional Langevin delay dynamical system are obtained by using the Grammian matrix. Sufficient conditions for the controllability of the nonlinear delay dynamical systems are established by using the Schauders fixed-point theorem. The problem of controllability of linear and nonlinear fractional Langevin delay dynamical systems with multiple delays and distributed delays in control are studied by using the same technique. Examples are provided to illustrate the theory

Existence and controllability for stochastic evolution inclusions of Clarke's subdifferential type

In this paper, we investigate a class of stochastic evolution inclusions of Clarke's subdifferential type in Hilbert spaces. The existence of mild solutions and controllability results are given and proved by using stochastic analysis techniques, semigroup of operators theory, a fixed point theorem of multivalued maps and properties of generalized Clarke subdifferential. An example is included to illustrate the applicability of the main results

Stability of fractional order systems

The theory and applications of fractional calculus (FC) had a considerable progress during the last years. Dynamical systems and control are one of the most active areas, and several authors focused on the stability of fractional order systems. Nevertheless, due to the multitude of efforts in a short period of time, contributions are scattered along the literature, and it becomes difficult for researchers to have a complete and systematic picture of the present day knowledge. This paper is an attempt to overcome this situation by reviewing the state of the art and putting this topic in a systematic form. While the problem is formulated with rigour, from the mathematical point of view, the exposition intends to be easy to read by the applied researchers. Different types of systems are considered, namely, linear/nonlinear, positive, with delay, distributed, and continuous/discrete. Several possible routes of future progress that emerge are also tackled

Controllability Problem of Fractional Neutral Systems: A Survey

The following article presents recent results of controllability problem of dynamical systems in infinite-dimensional space. Generally speaking, we describe selected controllability problems of fractional order systems, including approximate controllability of fractional impulsive partial neutral integrodifferential inclusions with infinite delay in Hilbert spaces, controllability of nonlinear neutral fractional impulsive differential inclusions in Banach space, controllability for a class of fractional neutral integrodifferential equations with unbounded delay, controllability of neutral fractional functional equations with impulses and infinite delay, and controllability for a class of fractional order neutral evolution control systems

Approximate Controllability of Fractional Integrodifferential Evolution Equations

This paper addresses the issue of approximate controllability for a class of control system which is represented by nonlinear fractional integrodifferential equations with nonlocal conditions. By using semigroup theory, p-mean continuity and fractional calculations, a set of sufficient conditions, are formulated and proved for the nonlinear fractional control systems. More precisely, the results are established under the assumption that the corresponding linear system is approximately controllable and functions satisfy nonLipschitz conditions. The results generalize and improve some known results
