Summary

A state space trajectory refers to the path a system takes through its phase space, which is the set of all possible physical states a system can occupy. Developed in the late 19th century by scientists like Ludwig Boltzmann and Henri Poincaré, phase space is crucial for understanding the evolution of physical systems. In the context of artificial intelligence, the concept of state space trajectory is being utilized by Unconventional AI in their open-source model, Uno. This model, designed for image generation and sequence modeling, achieves extreme efficiency by analyzing the state space trajectory of oscillators, approaching the thermodynamic limit and pushing beyond the capabilities of traditional computing methods. This approach is part of a broader effort to overcome the significant energy constraints in AI, moving away from the inefficient von Neumann architecture towards novel computing paradigms inspired by neurobiology.

    Phase space

    The phase space of a physical system is the set of all possible physical states of the system when described by a given parameterization. Each possible state corresponds uniquely to a point in the phase space. For mechanical systems, the phase space usually consists of all possible values of the position and momentum parameters. It is the direct product of direct space and reciprocal space. The concept of phase space was developed in the late 19th century by Ludwig Boltzmann, Henri Poincaré, and Josiah Willard Gibbs.

Determining the notion of the state trajectory To specific initial conditions x1(0), x2(0),...xn(0) corresponds to one solution of the dynamic system. This means that each group of initial conditions corresponding to only one start point M0 and one status trajectory. Corresponds to the set of group of initial conditions corresponding to the whole set of state trajectory, which we call the phase portrait of a dynamical system. The state trajectory set really gives you an idea about the behavior of dynamic systems in time. State-space method is best suited for the analysis of a dynamic system of the second order, because in the this case the state trajectory in the plane s. [...] This method is simple and opinions shall form the dynamic system of 2nd order. In this case, the state space is represented by a plane state trajectories are in the plane of the curve. State trajectory can be obtained directly from the equation of state without having to look for their solutions.

      Specifically, we derive conditions under which, starting anywhere in the state space, the state trajectory can be driven to the origin by piecewise continuous input signals over a finite time interval. More generally, it turns out that if it is possible to do this, then it is also possible to steer the state trajectory to any final state in finite time via a suitable input signal. While the controllability analysis presented in this chapter has a decid-edly open-loop flavor involving input signals that have a prescribed effect on the state trajectory without any mention of feedback, there is also an important connection between controllability and the design of feedback-control laws that will be pursued in Chapter 7. [...] Definition 1.1 For a nominal input signal, ˜ u(t), the nominal state tra-jectory ˜ x(t) satisfies ˙ ˜ x(t) = f [˜ x(t), ˜ u(t), t] and the nominal output trajectory ˜ y(t) satisfies ˜ y(t) = h[˜ x(t), ˜ u(t), t] If ˜ u(t) = ˜ u, a constant vector, a special case is an equilibrium state ˜ x that satisfies 0 = f (˜ x, ˜ u, t) for all t. [...] For positive damping (c > 0), we have dE/dt < 0 along any trajectory for which the mass velocity is not identically zero. A trajectory for which x2(t) = ˙ y(t) is identically zero corresponds to identically zero accelera-tion and a constant displacement. Since such a trajectory also must satisfy the equations of motion we see, on substituting ˙ x2(t) = ¨ y(t) ≡0, ˙ x1(t) = x2(t) = ˙ y(t) ≡0, and x1(t) = y(t) ≡y0 (constant), that ky0 = 0. Conse-quently, the only trajectory for which the mass velocity is identically zero corresponds to the equilibrium state x(t) ≡˜ x = [0, 0]T . We conclude that the total energy in the system is strictly decreasing along all other tra-jectories and converges to zero as time tends to infinity. We expect that this should correspond to asymptotic convergence of

      Of course, not every arbitrarily drawn curve in the phase plane represents a solution. What is special about solution trajectories is that the velocity vector at each point along the trajectory is given by the right hand side of the differential equation above. That is, the velocity vector of the trajectory \((x(t), y(t))\) at a point \((x(p), y(p))\) is given by \((x', y') = (f(x(p),y(p)), g(x(p),y(p)))\ .\) This geometric property -- that the vector \((f(x,y), g(x,y))\) always points in the direction that the solution is flowing -- completely characterizes the solution trajectories (considered as subsets of the phase space). The function that assigns \((f(x,y), g(x,y))\) to \((x, y)\) is called the vector field. [...] ## Higher dimensional systems More generally, consider a system of \(n\)-first order differential equations of the form: \[ u' = F(u), ~~~ u \in R^n\ .\] The phase space is simply \(n\)-dimensional Euclidean space") and every solution, \(u(t)\ ,\) corresponds to a trajectory in phase space parametrized by the independent variable \(t\ .\) As before, \(F(u)\) defines a vector field in the phase space; at each point, \(u(p)\ ,\) the vector \(F(u(p))\) must be tangent to the solution curve \(u(t)\ .\) Moreover, equilibria are where \(F(u)=0\) and periodic solutions correspond to closed orbits. [...] Phase planes typically arise in the context of two-dimensional autonomous ODEs, which can be written in the form \[x' = f(x,y)\] \[y' = g(x,y)\ .\] Here, \(f\) and \(g\) are given (smooth) functions. The two variables could describe, e.g., the position and velocity of a particle, the state of a predator-prey system, or concentrations of two reagents in a homogeneous chemical reaction. If \((x(t), y(t))\) is a solution of the system, then at each time \(t=p\ ,\) \((x(p), y(p))\) defines a point in the phase plane. The point changes with time, so the entire solution, \((x(t),y(t))\ ,\) traces out a curve, or trajectory, in the phase plane.
