Existence theories for optimal control problems involving ordinary differential equations (49J15) Local differential geometry of Finsler spaces and generalizations (areal metrics) (53B40) Sub-Riemannian geometry (53C17)

Abstract: We define the notion of sub-Finsler geometry as a natural generalization of sub-Riemannian geometry with applications to optimal control theory. We compute a complete set of local invariants, geodesic equations, and the Jacobi operator for the three-dimensional case and investigate homogeneous examples.
