Review text

The center of interest of this chapter is the fundamental role of feedback in control theory. Additional themes are stability, robustness, optimization, information and computational complexity. After an introduction, in \S 2 the chapter begins with an intelligible introduction of the basic ideas of feedback. Then state space models, which are used in the chapter, are defined in \S 3. In \S 4 the author shows the use of differential geometric tools for controllability and observability. The possibility of feedback linearization of nonlinear systems is discussed in \S 5. \S 6 deals with the problem of stabilization. In the rest of the chapter the author describes in detail optimization-based methods in control theory (deterministic optimal control, optimal stabilization, stochastic optimal control, robust control, output feedback). The chapter closes with some remarks on numerical solutions of optimization problems. All topics are illustrated by fitting and proper examples. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0954.00019].
