Dynamic Programming and Partial Differential Equations

  • Chapter
Partial Differential Equations

Part of the book series: Mathematics and Its Applications ((MAIA,volume 15))

Abstract

In this chapter, we wish to show that dynamic programming applied to the calculus of variations leads to various classes of partial differential equations. In the following chapter we will discuss this further.
