Research

Lately, I have mostly focused on distributed control design; a sub-branch of control theory. Given a system composed of a large number of interacting units, the goal is to synthesize a controller with the same interconnection topology. This turns out to be a convex problem in general... Please see the relevant papers and software for more details.

Bio

I joined Caltech in the fall of 2004, after receiving my Ph.D. in Theoretical & Applied Mechanics from Cornell University. Before that, I studied Aerospace Engineering at Supaéro and Dynamical Systems at INLN.
