The objective is to design a controller that minimizes the worst-case performance over a set of uncertain systems. The uncertainty is described by a set of linear time-invariant systems with unknown parameters. The main contribution is a common framework for both state feedback and output feedback control. We show that for finite uncertainty sets, the minimax dual control problem admits a finite-dimensional information state. This information state can be used to design adaptive controllers that ensure that the closed-loop has finite gain. The controllers are derived from a set of Bellman inequalities that are amenable to numerical solutions. The proposed framework is illustrated on a challenging numerical example.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.04115v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2409.04115v1.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":"output-feedback-minimax-adaptive-control","repo_url":"https://github.com/kjellqvist/MinimaxAdaptiveControl.jl","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
