Learning with little mixing
We study square loss in a realizable time-series framework with martingale difference noise.
Our main result is a fast rate excess risk bound which shows that whenever a trajectory …

Perturbation-based regret analysis of predictive control in linear time varying systems
We study predictive control in a setting where the dynamics are time-varying and linear, and
the costs are time-varying and well-conditioned. At each time step, the controller receives …

Nonlinear detectability and incremental input/output-to-state stability
Incremental input/output-to-state stability (i-IOSS) is a popular characterization of
detectability for nonlinear systems. For instance, it is known that any system that admits a …
