Return ambiguity is modeled by a 1-Wasserstein ball centered at the empirical distribution, and trading frictions are incorporated via a convex, positively homogeneous transaction cost function applied at each rebalance. We establish a flight-to-safety principle: as trading frictions rise, the critical ambiguity radius—the smallest radius beyond which the optimizer retreats entirely to the risk-free asset—weakly decreases. Rolling-window experiments on S&P 500 constituents illustrate this mechanism, showing that higher transaction costs systematically shift the robust allocation toward the risk-free asset.","PeriodicalId":37235,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Control Systems Letters","volume":"10 ","pages":"379-384"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148486079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The decoy is equipped with a jamming device that conceals the exact location of the evader, and the evader must remain within a certain distance from the decoy for the concealment to be effective. The pursuer has access only to the real-time location of the decoy and employs a pure pursuit strategy toward it. We formulate this scenario as a state-constrained optimal control problem in which the evader-decoy coalition seeks to maximize the capture time through cooperative strategies. We first show that indefinite evasion for the evader is possible and construct an explicit evader-decoy cooperative strategy to achieve it. We then establish sufficient conditions for guaranteed finite-time capture and derive an upper bound on the capture time. Numerical simulations validate the effectiveness of the proposed methodologies.","PeriodicalId":37235,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Control Systems Letters","volume":"10 ","pages":"1003-1008"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148486331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We study this problem within the framework of multi-player Tullock contests, where the coordinator influences subordinate players by designing their reported valuations of the contested prize, a mechanism that preserves the Tullock structure of the subordinates’ objectives and thereby enables tractable equilibrium analysis. We first characterize the Nash equilibrium of the general multi-player Tullock contest, establishing how valuations and per-unit costs jointly determine equilibrium bids and payoffs. We then derive the optimal reported valuations for a coordinator managing two subordinates against a single opponent, and show that the structure of the optimal solution extends to contests with an arbitrary number of subordinates, reducing the coordinator’s optimization to a two-variable problem regardless of system size.","PeriodicalId":37235,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Control Systems Letters","volume":"10 ","pages":"1747-1752"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148487003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The motivation is to obtain a principled zero-order refinement mechanism for sampling-based MPC: the Kalman update contracts the ensemble through residual-informed covariances and resembles a Gauss–Newton refinement under local linearization. Building on an earlier ADMM–EKI formulation that used heuristic scheduling and was empirically validated, this work develops a fixed-schedule variant and analyzes the resulting inexact outer iteration. The main contribution is an explicit inner forcing rule linking the EKI refinement budget to the ADMM tolerance sequence; under stated local assumptions, this yields augmented-Lagrangian descent up to summable error, residual convergence, and KKT characterization of accumulation points.","PeriodicalId":37235,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Control Systems Letters","volume":"10 ","pages":"1645-1650"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148487516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A limitation of classical stability analysis, however, is that it is inherently equilibrium-dependent. Contractive systems, by contrast, are defined independently of any equilibrium and admit a rich set of robustness bounds. In this letter, we develop new time-varying perturbation conditions for contractive dynamics that preserve incremental exponential stability of the perturbed system and, in specific regimes, guarantee asymptotic convergence to solutions of the nominal dynamics. As an application, we propose a safety filter for steering a nominally contractive system to a desired equilibrium while avoiding an unsafe set, and we present an example illustrating advantages of the proposed method over existing approaches.","PeriodicalId":37235,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Control Systems Letters","volume":"10 ","pages":"673-678"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148482647","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Classical Pontryagin-based formulations typically require a multi-regime approach, requiring the discovery of boundary entry and exit times through complex hybrid switching logic and costate jump conditions.

By embedding constraints directly into the system manifold, we derive transformed dynamics on an unconstrained domain that satisfy hard state constraints through an explicitly imposed viability condition.

In dispersive readout, stronger coupling between the readout cavity and the external field improves measurement speed, but also enhances Purcell relaxation of the qubit. To address this trade-off, we introduce coherent feedback (CF) into the design of a notch-type Purcell filter. Using Fermi’s golden rule, the Purcell rate is related to the environmental spectrum seen from the qubit, enabling a transfer-function-based analysis of the proposed filter. Under idealized assumptions including lossless components, perfect phase matching, and ideal circulators, the proposed CF filter completely suppresses the Purcell rate at the qubit frequency while preserving the effective coupling near the readout frequency. These results suggest coherent feedback as an alternative design option for Purcell filtering.","PeriodicalId":37235,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Control Systems Letters","volume":"10 ","pages":"1159-1164"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148487111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A key innovation lies in the incorporation of a saturation-based sliding mode formulation into both the cost function and the constraints of the optimization problem, which ensures the convergence of sliding mode variables even under a short prediction horizon. To enhance robustness against model uncertainties and external disturbances, a prediction model based on Gaussian process regression (GPR) is incorporated into the SMPC framework, thereby reducing the dependence on highly accurate prior model knowledge through online learning of lumped uncertainty. Furthermore, a tailored terminal weight design is developed to support theoretical stability analysis. Rigorous proof is provided to establish the feasibility and global stability of the closed-loop system. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed controller achieves trajectory tracking with reduced computational complexity.","PeriodicalId":37235,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Control Systems Letters","volume":"10 ","pages":"463-468"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148171555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we consider the case where the governing matrix has purely imaginary eigenvalues, and show that then, in the generic case, the number of switching points is bounded from below by a linear function of the length of the time interval.
