Title :
Global nonlinear control: A new geometric aspect
Author :
Feiler, Matthias J.
Abstract :
Many concepts of linear control theory can be extended to the nonlinear domain provided one restricts oneself to a neighborhood of the equilibrium. But what happens beyond that neighborhood? The paper addresses this question for the special case of a system defined on a compact boundaryless manifold.
