Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue showcases the latest research on the use of mathematical models and methods in the analysis and control of complex dynamical systems and robots.
These articles explore a range of topics, including nonlinear dynamics, adaptive control, optimal control, distributed control, and learning control. They present new theoretical results and practical applications that demonstrate the dynamics and control of complex systems and robots.
Specific applications of these techniques in different complex systems and robotic domains are addressed. The topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- The modelling and control of nonlinear systems using differential geometry and Lie group methods;
- Designing adaptive controllers for uncertain systems using Lyapunov stability theory and sliding mode control techniques;
- Robotic systems using optimal control theory and numerical optimization methods;
- Learning control policies for autonomous robots using machine learning algorithms and reinforcement learning techniques;
- Learning cross-domain knowledge for robotic interactions and comprehension using machine learning algorithms and large pretrained language models.
We hope that this Special Issue will serve as a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners interested in this field. The articles provide a glimpse into the diverse range of mathematical techniques that can be applied to these fields, while also highlighting the importance of collaboration between mathematicians and engineers in addressing real-world challenges.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
