Stabilization of infinitesimally rigid formations of multi-robot networks
This paper proposes a local gradient control law to stabilize a group of robots to a target formation. The control is derived from a potential function based on an undirected infin...

Global complete observability and output-to-state stability imply the existence of a globally convergent observer
In this paper we consider systems which are globally completly observable and output-to-state stable. The former property guarantees the existence of coordinates such that the dyna...
