Tunable transport with broken space-time symmetries
Transport properties of particles and waves in spatially periodic structures
that are driven by external time-dependent forces manifestly depend on the
space-time symmetries of the corresponding equations of motion. A systematic
analysis of these symmetries uncovers the conditions necessary for obtaining
directed transport. In this work we give a unified introduction into the
symmetry analysis and demonstrate its action on the motion in one-dimensional
periodic, both in time and space, potentials. We further generalize the
analysis to quasi-periodic drivings, higher space dimensions, and quantum
dynamics. Recent experimental results on the transport of cold and ultracold
atomic ensembles in ac-driven optical potentials are reviewed as illustrations
of theoretical considerations.Comment: Phys. Rep., in pres
Identification and data-driven model reduction of state-space representations of lossless and dissipative systems from noise-free data
We illustrate procedures to identify a state-space representation of a lossless- or dissipative system from a given noise-free trajectory; important special cases are passive- and bounded-real systems. Computing a rank-revealing factorization of a Gramian-like matrix constructed from the data, a state sequence can be obtained; state-space equations are then computed solving a system of linear equations. This idea is also applied to perform model reduction by obtaining a balanced realization directly from data and truncating it to obtain a reduced-order mode
Dissipativity preserving model reduction by retention of trajectories of minimal dissipation
We present a method for model reduction based on ideas from the behavioral theory of dissipative systems, in which the reduced order model is required to reproduce a subset of the set of trajectories of minimal dissipation of the original system. The passivity-preserving model reduction method of Antoulas (Syst Control Lett 54:361-374, 2005) and Sorensen (Syst Control Lett 54:347-360, 2005) is shown to be a particular case of this more general class of model reduction procedures
Krasovskii's Passivity
In this paper we introduce a new notion of passivity which we call
Krasovskii's passivity and provide a sufficient condition for a system to be
Krasovskii's passive. Based on this condition, we investigate classes of
port-Hamiltonian and gradient systems which are Krasovskii's passive. Moreover,
we provide a new interconnection based control technique based on Krasovskii's
passivity. Our proposed control technique can be used even in the case when it
is not clear how to construct the standard passivity based controller, which is
demonstrated by examples of a Boost converter and a parallel RLC circuit
Well-posedness and Stability for Interconnection Structures of Port-Hamiltonian Type
We consider networks of infinite-dimensional port-Hamiltonian systems
on one-dimensional spatial domains. These subsystems of
port-Hamiltonian type are interconnected via boundary control and observation
and are allowed to be of distinct port-Hamiltonian orders .
Wellposedness and stability results for port-Hamiltonian systems of fixed order
are thereby generalised to networks of such. The abstract
theory is applied to some particular model examples.Comment: Submitted to: Control Theory of Infinite-Dimensional System. Workshop

Structure-Preserving Model-Reduction of Dissipative Hamiltonian Systems
Reduced basis methods are popular for approximately solving large and complex
systems of differential equations. However, conventional reduced basis methods
do not generally preserve conservation laws and symmetries of the full order
model. Here, we present an approach for reduced model construction, that
preserves the symplectic symmetry of dissipative Hamiltonian systems. The
method constructs a closed reduced Hamiltonian system by coupling the full
model with a canonical heat bath. This allows the reduced system to be
integrated with a symplectic integrator, resulting in a correct dissipation of
energy, preservation of the total energy and, ultimately, in the stability of
the solution. Accuracy and stability of the method are illustrated through the
numerical simulation of the dissipative wave equation and a port-Hamiltonian
model of an electric circuit
