11. Gain-Scheduled Controller Design
Sammanfattning : This thesis is devoted to controller synthesis, i.e. to finding a systematic procedure to determine the optimal (sub-optimal) controller parameters which guarantees the closed-loop stability and guaranteed cost for uncertain nonlinear systems with considering input/output constraints, all this without on-line optimization.

12. Multivariate linear normal models with special references to the growth curve model
Sammanfattning : The Growth Curve Model (GMAN0VA) introduced by Potthoff & Roy (1964) and two extensions are considered. The first extension treats a Growth Curve Model with concomitant variables whereas the second is applicable when different growth curves or when linear restrictions on the parameter space, describing the mean structure in the Growth Curve Model, exist.

13. Global stability and feedback control of boundary layer flows
Sammanfattning : In this thesis the stability of generic boundary layer flows is studied from a global viewpoint using optimization methods. Global eigenmodes of the incompressible linearized Navier-Stokes equations are computed using the Krylov subspace Arnoldi method. LÄS MER
14. Credit risk and forward price models
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three distinct parts. Part I introduces the basic concepts and the notion of general quadratic term structures (GQTS) essential in some of the following chapters. Part II focuses on credit risk models and Part III studies forward price term structure models using both the classical and the geometrical approach. LÄS MER
15. Contributions to High–Dimensional Analysis under Kolmogorov Condition
Sammanfattning : This thesis is about high–dimensional problems considered under the so{called Kolmogorov condition. Hence, we consider research questions related to random matrices with p rows (corresponding to the parameters) and n columns (corresponding to the sample size), where p > n, assuming that the ratio converges when the number of parameters and the sample size increase.
