Time-optimal control of a two-peakon collision

Abstract

We study a time-optimal control problem of a two-peakon collision. First, we state the controllability. Next, we find the time-optimal strategy. This is done via the HamiltonJacobi-Bellman equation and the dynamic programming method. We find a tricky way to solve a corresponding Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. Our approach can be extended to more general control problems. Indeed, a special version of a maximum principle for time-optimal controls of particular Hamiltonian systems is proposed.
