The optimal control problem of connecting any two trajectories in a behavior B with maximal persistence of that behavior is put forth and a compact solution is obtained for a general class of behaviors. The behavior B is understood in the…
We investigate a dynamical basis for the Riemann hypothesis (RH) that the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function lie on the critical line x = 1/2. In the process we graphically explore, in as rich a way as possible, the diversity of…

Mean-field control problems have received continuous interest over the last decade. Despite being more intricate than in classical optimal control, the linear-quadratic setting can still be tackled through Riccati equations. Remarkably, we…
