The Dynamical Systems and Control Laboratory, led by Prof. Michael Margaliot, focuses on the analysis and control of nonlinear dynamical systems, with emphasis on stability, feedback, and robustness. The lab develops theoretical tools grounded in linear algebra, dynamical systems theory, control theory, and applied mathematics, and applies them to a range of domains including biological systems, networked systems, and engineering applications.

A particular focus is on monotone and contractive systems, oscillatory behavior, and the design of feedback mechanisms that ensure reliable and predictable system performance. The lab combines rigorous mathematical analysis with interdisciplinary collaboration to address fundamental and applied challenges in modern dynamical systems.
