Conjecture on permanent tracking-error control by online adjustment of alpha

Let yy be the system output, let yy^* be its reference, and let α\alpha be the adjustable parameter in the variational model-free Lagrangian. The tracking error is yyy-y^*.

Permanent tracking-control conjecture. Under certain conditions, still to be defined, the Euler–Lagrange equation applied to the variational model-free Lagrangian establishes the possibility of controlling the tracking error yyy-y^* permanently by online adjustment of α\alpha.

The claim proposes a variational basis for model-free control, but the conditions required for the Euler–Lagrange argument are not specified in the source, and its resolution is therefore open.
