A geometric theory for modern optimisation problems in control and estimation. Linear-quadratic and spectral factorisation problems play a crucial role in system and control theory as well as many important application areas. The success of the project will represent a significant advancement of state-of-the-art in these broad areas.
Algebraic and geometric methods in switched control system analysis and design. The theory of switched control systems underpins complex network technologies that enable cleaner, more efficient and sustainable energy, transport and industry. The research aims to extend the fundamental knowledge base in systems and control, contributing to maintain the solid world-class reputation of Australia in the field.
