Regularization of cheap periodic control problems (Q2577381)

The authors study a class of linear-quadratic control systems with singular perturbations. Such problems are distinctively geometric and, therefore, geometric approaches are applied to solve them. A new approach is designed to find the asymptotic solution of cheap periodic control problems, introducing an extended control problem admitting the application of integral manifold method and reduction of the periodic problem to an initial-value problem and, consequently, reduction of its dimension to the dimension of the initial problem. An example on control of periodic oscillations of a mathematical system is given.
