Such a state-space partition is computed in order to guarantee stability, an a priori fixed trajectory error as well as input and state constraints fulfilment. The presented approximation procedure is achieved by solving a set of nonconvex polynomial optimization problems, whose approximate solutions are computed by means of semidefinite relaxation techniques for semialgebraic problems.}, url = {http://eprints.imtlucca.it/2475/}, keywords = {LMI relaxation, polynomial optimization, model predictive control} }
