This paper presents a review of past and present results and approaches in the area of
motion planning using MIP (Mixed-integer Programming). Although in the early 2000s MIP …

Field theory is a more or less coherent approach in the social sciences whose essence is
the explanation of regularities in individual action by recourse to position vis-à-vis others …

Illustrating the power, simplicity, and generality of the concept of flatness, this reference
explains how to identify, utilize, and apply flatness in system planning and design. The book …

A new system equivalence relation, using the framework of differential geometry of jets and
prolongations of infinite order, is studied. In this setting, two systems are said to be …

Nonholonomic systems are control systems which depend linearly on the control. Their
underlying geometry is the sub-Riemannian geometry, which plays for these systems the …

A self-contained introduction to algebraic control for nonlinear systems suitable for
researchers and graduate students. The most popular treatment of control for nonlinear …

This paper is devoted to the characterization of differentially flat nonlinear systems in implicit
representation, after elimination of the input variables, in the differential geometric …

The paper gives an explicit open‐loop control, able to approximately steer the one‐
dimensional heat equation with control on the boundary from any state to any other state …

This article deals with the trajectory aspect of differential flatness from a feedforward point of
view. The notion of exact feedforward linearization based on differential flatness is …
