AbstractWe study the generalized moment problem and the marginal constraints problem. We connect them when the measures have a finite support.The extreme points of the convex set of solutions with a finite support are determined in both problems.For the moment problem, they are shown to span in the weak topology the set of all the solutions.

Abstract:
In this paper, we present a method to optimize the attainable moment set (AMS) to increase the control authority for electrical vertical take-off and landing vehicles (eVTOLs). As opposed to 3D AMSs for conventional airplanes, the hover control of eVTOLs requires vertical thrust produced by the powered lift system in addition to three moments. The limits of the moments and vertical thrust are coupled due to input saturation, and, as a result, the concept of the traditional AMS is extended to the 4D generalized moment set to account for this coupling effect. Given a required moment set (RMS) derived from system requirements, the optimization is formulated as a 4D convex polytope coverage problem, i.e., the AMS coverage over the RMS, such that the system’s available control authority is maximized to fulfill the prescribed requirements. The optimization accounts for not only nominal flight, but also for one critical engine inoperative situation. To test the method, it is applied to an eVTOL with eight rotors to optimize for the rotors’ orientation with respect to the body axis. The results indicate highly improved coverage of the RMS for both failure-free and one-engine-inoperative situations. Closed-loop simulation tests are performed for both optimal and non-optimal configurations to further validate the results.

Abstract:
Empirical evidence suggests that financial risk has a heavy-tailed profile. Motivated by recent advances in the generalized quantile risk measure, we propose the tail value-at-risk (TVaR)-based expectile, which can capture the tail risk compared with the classic expectile. In addition to showing that the risk measure is well-defined, the properties of TVaR-based expectiles as risk measures were also studied. In particular, we give the equivalent characterization of the coherency. For extreme risks, usually modeled by a regularly varying survival function, the asymptotic expansion of a TVaR-based expectile (with respect to quantiles) was studied. In addition, motivated by recent advances in distributionally robust optimization in portfolio selections, we give the closed-form of the worst-case TVaR-based expectile based on moment information. Based on this closed form of the worst-case TVaR-based expectile, the distributionally robust portfolio selection problem is reduced to a convex quadratic program. Numerical results are also presented to illustrate the performance of the new risk measure compared with classic risk measures, such as tail value-at-risk-based expectiles.

Abstract:
The quasi-linear conflict-controlled processes of general form are studied. The theme for investigation is the problem of the trajectories approaching a given cylindrical set. The research is based on the method of upper and lower resolving functions. The main attention is paid to the case when Pontryagin’s condition does not hold, moreover, the bodily part of the terminal set is non-convex. A scheme of the method is proposed, which allows, in the case of non-convexity of the body part, to fix some point in it, namely the aiming point, and to realize the process of approach. Sufficient conditions are obtained for solving the problem of approach for different classes of strategies. In so doing, the Hayek stroboscopic strategies that prescribe control by N.N. Krasovskii are applied. The process of approach goes on in two stages — active and passive. On the active stage the upper resolving function of second type is accumulated and after the moment of switching the lower resolving function of second type is used. These functions allow constructing a measurable control of second player on the basis of the theorems on measurable choice, in particular, the Filippov-Castaing theorem. The obtained results for generalized quasi-linear processes make it possible to encompass a wide range of functional-differential systems as well as the systems with fractional and partial derivatives. Possibilities for development of the offered technique are specified.

Abstract:
Introduction. Production of safe food requires the avoidance of using chemical means to bring weeds under control in cultivating crops. Existing tillage loosening and separating machine PRSM-5 Dokuchaevskaya optimizes the physical and mechanical state of the cultivated soil layer, while the weeds are carefully removed from the soil by combing out together with the whole weed root system and laid on the surface, where they dry up under the influence of climatic factors. During the operation of the tillage machine, about 30% of the total energy consumption is spent on the rotor drive. Therefore, this machine is not working satisfactorily in firm soils. Materials and Methods. The soil was considered as an elastic-plastic medium. The generalized Hookeʼs law model and a variant of the plastic flow theory were taken into account. To simplify the calculations, there was used the experimental study information on the position in space of the soil deformation surface. The intensity of stresses of polyplastic deformations of the soil layer was determined. For the numerical solution of the problem, the Ritz method was used. Results. In connection with the indicated disadvantages, the parameters of the rotor ripper are justified taking into account the reduction in energy consumption for its drive. As a result of solving the problem by the Ritz method, the geometric shape of the rotor ripper was determined. The energy performance of the section of the tillage machine was evaluated by the torque of the rotor drive of the loosening-separating device. The rotor drive torque was determined for rippers with flat, convex, and concave profiles and for the profile substantiated during the study. Discussion and Conclusion. The profile substantiated during the study provides the best conditions for transporting the soil at the initial moment of the rotor entry into the soil and the minimum energy consumption for its drive.

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with two generalized moment problems arising in the estimation of stochastic models. Firstly, we consider the THREE approach, introduced by Byrnes Georgiou and Lindquist, for estimating spectral densities. Here, the output covariance matrix of a known bank of filters is used to extract information on the input spectral density which needs to be estimated. The parametrization of the family of spectral densities matching the output covariance is a generalized moment problem. An estimate of the input spectral density is then chosen from this family. The choice criterium is based on the minimization of a suitable divergence index among spectral densities. After the introduction of the THREE-like paradigm, we present a multivariate extension of the Beta divergence for solving the problem. Afterward, we deal with the estimation of the output covariance of the filters bank given a finite-length data generated by the unknown input spectral density. Secondly, we deal with the quantum process tomography. This problem consists in the estimation of a quantum channel which can be thought as the quantum equivalent of the Markov transition matrix in the classical setting. Here, a quantum system prepared in a known pure state is fed to the unknown channel. A measurement of an observable is performed on the output state. The set of the employed pure states and observables represents the experimental setting. Again, the parametrization of the family of quantum channels matching the measurements is a generalized moment problem. The choice criterium for the best estimate in this family is based on the maximization of maximum likelihood functionals. The corresponding estimate, however, may not be unique since the experimental setting is not "rich" enough in many cases of interest. We characterize the minimal experimental setting which guarantees the uniqueness of the estimate. Numerical simulation evidences that experimental settings richer than the minimal one do not lead to better performances<br>In questa tesi vengono presentati e analizzati due problemi dei momenti generalizzati che vengono utilizzati per la stima di modelli stocastici. Inizieremo col considerare l'approccio THREE, introdotto da Byrnes Georgiou e Lindquist, per la stima di densita spettrali. In questo metodo la covarianza dell'uscita di un banco di filtri noto è utilizzata per estrarre informazione sulla densità spettrale da stimare del segnale all'ingresso del banco. La parametrizzazione della famiglia di densità spettrali compatibili con la covarianza di uscita è un problema dei momenti generalizzato. Una stima di questa densità spettrale è scelta in questa famiglia. Il criterio di tale scelta si basa sulla minimizzazione di un opportuno indice di divergenza tra densità spettrali. Dopo aver introdotto il paradigma di tipo THREE, presenteremo una estensione multivariata della Beta divergenza per risolvere questo problema. Successivamente, affronteremo il problema della stima della matrice di covarianza dell'uscita del banco di filtri avendo a disposizione una sequenza di dati generati dalla densità spettrale all'ingresso del banco. Infine, tratteremo la tomografia di processi quantistici. Questo problema consiste nello stimare un canale quantistico che può essere pensato come l'equivalente della matrice di transizione di un processo Markoviano nel caso classico. Più precisamente, il canale quantistico da identicare è alimentato da un sistema quantistico preparato in uno stato puro noto. Il corrispondente stato all'uscita è successivamente soggetto alla misura di un osservabile. L'insieme di questi stati puri e osservabili caratterizza il setting sperimentale. Anche in questo caso, la parametrizzazione della famiglia di canali quantistici compatibili con le misure costituisce un problema dei momenti generalizzato. Il criterio di scelta della stima migliore in questa famiglia si basa sul principio a massima verosimiglianza. Tale stima può tuttavia non essere unica perchè l'esperimento in molti casi non è sufficientemente "ricco". Individueremo il setting sperimentale minimo che garantisce l'unicità della stima. Le simulazioni numeriche evidenziano che setting sperimentali più ricchi di quello minimo non portano a migliori prestazioni

Abstract:
This dissertation concerns the problem of spectral estimation subject to moment constraints. Its scalar counterpart is well-known under the name of rational covariance extension which has been extensively studied in past decades. The classical covariance extension problem can be reformulated as a truncated trigonometric moment problem, which in general admits infinitely many solutions. In order to achieve positivity and rationality, optimization with entropy-like functionals has been exploited in the literature to select one solution with a fixed zero structure. Thus spectral zeros serve as an additional degree of freedom and in this way a complete parametrization of rational solutions with bounded degree can be obtained. New theoretical and numerical results are provided in this problem area of systems and control and are summarized in the following. First, a new algorithm for the scalar covariance extension problem formulated in terms of periodic ARMA models is given and its local convergence is demonstrated. The algorithm is formally extended for vector processes and applied to finite-interval model approximation and smoothing problems. Secondly, a general existence result is established for a multivariate spectral estimation problem formulated in a parametric fashion. Efforts are also made to attack the difficult uniqueness question and some preliminary results are obtained. Moreover, well-posedness in a special case is studied throughly, based on which a numerical continuation solver is developed with a provable convergence property. In addition, it is shown that solution to the spectral estimation problem is generally not unique in another parametric family of rational spectra that is advocated in the literature. Thirdly, the problem of image deblurring is formulated and solved in the framework of the multidimensional moment theory with a quadratic penalty as regularization.<br>Questa tesi riguarda il problema della stima spettrale soggetta a vincoli sui momenti. La sua controparte scalare e' ben conosciuta sotto il nome di estensione razionale delle covarianze ed e' stata ampiamente studiata negli ultimi decenni. Il classico problema di estensione delle covarianze puo' essere riformulato come un roblema dei momenti trigonometrici troncato, che in generale ammette infinite soluzioni. Al fine di ottenere positivita' e azionalita', in letteratura e' stata sfruttata l'ottimizzazione con funzionali ntropici per selezionare una soluzione con una struttura degli zeri fissa. Cosi' gli zeri spettrali fungono da grado di liberta' addizionale e permettono di ottenere una parametrizzazione completa delle soluzioni razionali con grado limitato. Nuovi risultati teorici e numerici sono forniti in questa branca della teoria dei sistemi e del controllo e sono riassunti di seguito. Innanzitutto si propone un nuovo algoritmo per il problema scalare dell'estensione delle covarianze formulato in termini di modelli ARMA periodici e se ne dimostra la convergenza locale. L'algoritmo e' esteso formalmente ai processi vettoriali e applicato ai problemi di approssimazione dei modelli a intervallo finito e di livellamento. In secondo luogo viene stabilito un risultato di esistenza generale per un problema di stima spettrale multivariata formulato in modo parametrico. Si fanno anche sforzi per attaccare la difficile questione dell'unicita' e si ottengono alcuni risultati preliminari. Inoltre, in un caso speciale e' studiata a fondo la buona posizione del problema, in base alla quale e' sviluppato un risolutore a continuazione numerica con convergenza dimostrabile. Per di piu', si dimostra che la soluzione al problema della stima spettrale in generale non e' unica in un'altra famiglia parametrica di spettri razionali proposta in letteratura. In terzo luogo, il problema del deblurring delle immagini e' formulato e risolto nel quadro della teoria multidimensionale dei momenti con una regolarizzazione a penalita' quadratica.
