Journal Article
Drummond, R., Guiver, C., & Turner, M. (2024)
Exponential input-to-state stability for Lur’e systems via Integral Quadratic Constraints and Zames-Falb Multipliers. IMA Journal of Mathematical Control and Information, 41(1), 1-17. https://doi.org/10.1093/imamci/dnae003
Absolute stability criteria which are sufficient for global exponential stability are shown, under a Lipschitz assumption, to be sufficient for the a priori stronger exponenti...

Low-gain integral control for a class of discrete-time Lur'e systems with applications to sampled-data control

Journal Article
Guiver, C., Rebarber, R., & Townley, S. (in press)
Low-gain integral control for a class of discrete-time Lur'e systems with applications to sampled-data control. International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, https://doi.org/10.1002/rnc.6455
We study low-gain (P)roportional (I)ntegral control of multivariate discrete-time, forced Lur’e systems to solve the output-tracking problem for constant reference signals. We...

Aizerman Conjectures for a class of multivariate positive systems

Journal Article
Drummond, R., Guiver, C., & Turner, M. (in press)
Aizerman Conjectures for a class of multivariate positive systems. IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, https://doi.org/10.1109/TAC.2022.3217740
The Aizerman Conjecture predicts stability for a class of nonlinear control systems on the basis of linear system stability analysis. The conjecture is known to be false in ge...

Stabilisation by adaptive feedback control for positive difference equations with applications in pest management. SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 60(4), 2214-2245. https://doi.org/10.1137/21m1398240
An adaptive feedback control scheme is proposed for stabilising a class of forced nonlinear positive difference equations. The adaptive scheme is based on so-called high-gain...

Quantifying the per-capita contribution of all components of a migratory cycle: a modelling framework

Quantifying the per-capita contribution of all components of a migratory cycle: a modelling framework. Ecological Modelling, 471, Article 110056. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2022.110056
Migratory species make use of different habitats and pathways at different life stages, and in different seasons. Ecological management strategies proposed for migratory speci...

An equivalence framework for an age-structured multi-stage representation of the cell cycle

Journal Article
Kynaston, J. C., Guiver, C., & Yates, C. A. (2022)
An equivalence framework for an age-structured multi-stage representation of the cell cycle. Physical Review E, 105(6), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.105.064411
We develop theoretical equivalences between stochastic and deterministic models for populations of individual cells stratified by age. Specifically, we develop a hierarchical ...

The circle criterion for a class of sector-bounded dynamic nonlinearities

Journal Article
Guiver, C., & Logemann, H. (2022)
The circle criterion for a class of sector-bounded dynamic nonlinearities. Mathematics of Control, Signals, and Systems, 34, 461-492. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00498-022-00324-3
We present a circle criterion which is necessary and sufficient for absolute stability with respect to a natural class of sector-bounded nonlinear causal operators. This gener...

Incremental input-to-state stability for Lur’e systems and asymptotic behaviour in the presence of Stepanov almost periodic forcing
