Abstract

The main features of the optimal control problems considered here are: (1) the initial time is zero; (2) the performance index is not of a purely integral type, that is it always includes a function of the final event; (3) the initial state is given; (4) only simple constraints act on the system, namely we only require that (a) the final state is free or belongs to a regular variety, (b) the final time is either free or given, (c) the control variable is free or takes on values in a closed subset of the real numbers. In the considered problems we have the final time given or free.
