Abstract :
In this paper we describe some results obtained over the past few years in the areas of estimation and control. The point of the research is to find subclasses of systems that possess sufficient structure to allow us to determine optimal solutions or computationally feasible algorithms. In particular, we utilize several results from group theory (both for Lie and finite groups) to obtain our results.
