Abstract

In this work, we consider the periodic impulse control of a system modeled as a set of linear differential equations. We define a matrix that governs the qualitative behavior of the controlled system. This matrix depends on the period and effects of the control interventions. We investigate properties of the spectral radius of this matrix and in particular, how it depends on the period of the interventions. Our main result is on the convexity of the spectral radius with respect to this period. We discuss implications of this convexity on establishing an optimal and maximum period for effective control. Finally, we provide an example motivated from a real-life scenario.
