Weak Pontryagin's Maximum Principle for Optimal Control Problems Involving a General Analytic Kernel
Abstract
We prove a duality relation and an integration by parts formula for fractional operators with a general analytical kernel. Based on these basic results, we are able to prove a new Gronwall's inequality and continuity and differentiability of solutions of control differential equations. This allow us to obtain a weak version of Pontryagin's maximum principle. Moreover, our approach also allow us to consider mixed problems with both integer and fractional order operators and derive necessary optimality conditions for isoperimetric variational problems and other problems of the calculus of variations.
