Abstract

Consider again the problem of optimal control of a process described by the following differential equation \(\dot{x}=f(x, u), \qquad x(0)=x_0, \quad u\in U\).

Who has taught us the true analogies, the

profound analogies which the eyes do not see,

but which reason can divine? It is the mathe-

mathical mind, which scorns content and clings

to pure form.

Henri Poincaré

Notes

  1. 1.

    A piecewise smooth set \(M\subset G\) is a set which is a union of a finite or infinite number of curved polyhedrons from which only a finite number intersects with any bounded closed subset of G. The dimension of M is k if among the curved polyhedrons of which the sum is M there is a polyhedron of dimension k and the other polyhedrons have dimensions not greater than k.

    A curved polyhedron in the space X is the image of a polyhedron in some finite dimensional vector space through a one-to-one smooth map.
