Verdier","Manuel Mazo Jr"],"abstract":"This paper proposes a framework for automatic formal controller synthesis for general hybrid systems with a subset of safety and reachability specifications. The framework uses genetic programming to automatically co-synthesize controllers and candidate Lyapunov-like functions. These candidate Lyapunov-like functions are used to formally verify the control specification, and their correctness is proven using a Satisfiability Modulo Theories solver. The advantages of this approach are: no restriction is made to polynomial systems, the synthesized controllers are expressed as compact expressions, and no explicit solution structure has to be specified beforehand. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework in several case studies, including nonpolynomial systems, sampled-data systems, systems with bounded uncertainties, switched systems, and systems with jumps. osed framework in several case studies, including nonpolynomial systems, sampled-data systems, systems with bounded uncertainties, switched systems, and systems with jumps.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/2003.14322v2","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/2003.14322v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"formal-controller-synthesis-for-hybrid","repo_url":"https://github.com/CFVerdier/F4CS","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
