    This paper interfaces combinatorial integral approximation strategies with the inherent robustness properties of conventional model predictive control with stabilizing terminal conditions to establish practical asymptotic stability results for finite-control set and mixed-integer model predictive control. We examine the impact of sequential control rounding on the closed-loop performance in terms of stability and optimality. Sum-up rounding … Read more

    Graphons generalize graphs and define a limit object of a converging graph sequence. The notion of graphons allows for a generic representation of coupled network dynamical systems. We are interested in approximating integer controls for graphon dynamical systems. To this end, we apply a decomposition approach comprised of a relaxation and a reconstruction step. We … Read more
