On the co-NP-completeness of the zonotope containment problem

A Kulmburg, M Althoff - European Journal of Control, 2021 - Elsevier
We introduce a new type of norm for non-degenerate zonotopes to solve the point
containment problem, ie, whether a point lies in a zonotope. With this norm we prove the co …

Scalable robust safety filter with unknown disturbance set

F Gruber, M Althoff - IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2023 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Equipping any controller with formal safety guarantees can be achieved by using safety
filters. These filters modify the desired control input in the least restrictive way to guarantee …

Scalable zonotopic under-approximation of backward reachable sets for uncertain linear systems
