Abstract: We analyze the consequences that the so-called turnpike property has on the long-time behavior of the value function corresponding to a finite-dimensional linear-quadratic optimal control problem with general terminal cost and constrained controls. We prove that, when the time horizon T tends to infinity, the value function asymptotically behaves as W(x)+c,T+lambda, and we provide a control interpretation of each of these three terms, making clear the link with the turnpike property. As a by-product, we obtain the long-time behavior of the solution to the associated Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation in a case where the Hamiltonian is not coercive in the momentum variable. As a result of independent interest, we showed that linear-quadratic optimal control problems with constrained control enjoy a turnpike property, also particularly when the steady optimum may saturate the control constraints.
