Abstract

Cross-fertilization between control theory and irregular sampling is illustrated by two examples. Salah Baouendi applauded new ideas and welcomed new cultures. Interdisciplinary research is crossing frontiers, as Baouendi did all along his life. Two examples of cross-fertilization between harmonic analysis and control theory will be discussed in this homage. In 1983 Jacques-Louis Lions raised a problem in control theory. The solution I gave was grounded on a theorem on trigonometric sums proved by Arne Beurling. This will be our first example. The second example goes the other way around. A problem on trigonometric sums is solved using tools from control theory. Frontiers are erased as Baouendi wished.

In memory of M. Salah Baouendi
