Pahlajani" ], "categories": [ "math.PR", "math.DS" ], "abstract": "In this paper, we study the dynamics of a linear control system with given state feedback control law in the presence of fast periodic sampling at temporal frequency $1/\\delta$ ($0 < \\delta \\ll 1$), together with small white noise perturbations of size $\\varepsilon$ ($0<\\varepsilon \\ll 1$) in the state dynamics. For the ensuing continuous-time stochastic process indexed by two small parameters $\\varepsilon,\\delta$, we obtain effective ordinary and stochastic differential equations describing the mean behavior and the typical fluctuations about the mean in the limit as $\\varepsilon,\\delta \\searrow 0$. The effective fluctuation process is found to vary, depending on whether $\\delta \\searrow 0$ faster than/at the same rate as/slower than $\\varepsilon \\searrow 0$. The most interesting case is found to be the one where $\\delta,\\varepsilon$ are comparable in size; here, the limiting stochastic differential equation for the fluctuations has both a diffusive term due to the small noise and an effective drift term which captures the cumulative effect of the fast sampling. In this regime, our results yield a Markov process which provides a strong (pathwise) approximation of the original non-Markovian process, together with estimates on the ensuing error.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-01-20T11:14:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "linear controlled dynamical systems", "fast periodic sampling", "small random noise", "stochastic differential equation", "continuous-time stochastic process" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
