Some Computational Tools for Solving a Selection of Problems in Control Theory

Abstract

This paper demonstrates how certified computational tools can be used to address various problems in control theory. In particular, we introduce PACE.jl, a Julia package that implements symbolic elimination techniques, including (among others) discriminant varieties and Rational Univariate Representation, while also supporting multi-precision interval computations. We showcase its applications to key control theory problems, including identification, stability analysis, and optimization, for both parameter-dependent and parameter-free systems.
