Constraint algorithm for extremals in optimal control problems

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: A geometric method is described to characterize the different kinds of extremals in optimal control theory. This comes from the use of a presymplectic constraint algorithm starting from the necessary conditions given by Pontryagin's Maximum Principle. Apart from the design of this general algorithm useful for any optimal control problem, it is showed how it works to split the set of extremals and, in particular, to characterize the strict abnormality. An example of strict abnormal extremal for a particular control-affine system is also given.
