Application of Bernstein Expansion to the Solution of Control Problems

We survey some recent applications of Bernstein expansion to robust stability, viz. checking robust Hurwitz and Schur stability of polynomials with polynomial parameter dependency by testing determinantal criteria and by inspection of the value set. Then we show how Bernstein expansion can be used to solve systems of strict polynomial inequalities.
