Abstract

This paper presents first results for the stability analysis of Model Predictive Control schemes applied to the Fokker-Planck equation for tracking probability density functions. The analysis is carried out for linear dynamics and Gaussian distributions, where the distance to the desired reference is measured in the L²-norm. We present results for general such systems with and without control penalization. Refined results are given for the special case of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. Some of the results establish stability for the shortest possible (discrete time) optimization horizon N=2.
