Abstract
I will present new methods for designing feedback controllers for infinite-dimensional systems controlled from the boundary. Such problems arise in
turbulent flow control, chemical process control, fusion, nanotechnology applications such as control of cantilever beams in atomic force microscopes,
etc. Due to the inherent high dimensionality and unbounded input and output operators, control methods that mimic standard finite-dimensional
techniques and require the solution of operator Riccati equations are hard to apply to these problems. I will present a set of novel controller and
observer design techniques inspired by geometric nonlinear control tools and "backstepping," which employ only symbolic computation.
