Continuity of Optimal Control Costs and its application to Weak KAM Theory

Optimization and Control 2009-11-30 v2 Analysis of PDEs

Abstract

We prove continuity of certain cost functions arising from optimal control of affine control systems. We give sharp sufficient conditions for this continuity. As an application, we prove a version of weak KAM theorem and consider the Aubry-Mather problems corresponding to these systems.
