In this paper we study a sub-Finsler geometric problem on the free-nilpotent group of rank 2 and step 3. Such a group is also called Cartan group and has a natural structure of Carnot group, which we metrize considering the $\ell_\infty$…
In this paper we solve a problem raised by Guti\'errez and Montanari about comparison principles for $H-$convex functions on subdomains of Heisenberg groups. Our approach is based on the notion of the sub-Riemannian horizontal normal…
In this study, we consider an optimal control problem driven by a stochastic differential equation with state constraints. Here, the state constraints mean the constraints about the path of state. In order to show the maximum principe for…
We study the existence and cardinality of normal geodesics of different causal types on H(eisenberg)-type quaternion group equipped with the sub-Lorentzian metric. We present explicit formulas for geodesics and describe reachable sets by…

We study in optimal control the important relation between invariance of the problem under a family of transformations, and the existence of preserved quantities along the Pontryagin extremals. Several extensions of Noether theorem are…
This paper concerns optimal control problems for a class of sweeping processes governed by discontinuous unbounded differential inclusions that are described via normal cone mappings to controlled moving sets. Largely motivated by…
We consider a nonlinear system, affine with respect to an unbounded control $u$ which is allowed to range in a closed cone. To this system we associate a Bolza type minimum problem, with a Lagrangian having sublinear growth with respect to…
This paper defines a class of variational problems on Lie groups that admit involutive automorphisms. The maximum Principle of optimal control then identifies the appropriate left invariant Hamiltonians on the Lie algebra of the group. The…
We consider a problem on maximizing the height of vertical flight of a material point ("meteorological rocket") in the presence of a nonlinear friction and a constant flat gravity field under a bounded thrust and fuel expenditure. The…
We consider convex optimization problems with prioritized equality constraints, which may be infeasible. In many applications, such as network optimization and image reconstruction, it is often desirable to compute solutions that satisfy…
This article suggests the definition of "Lorentzian space" weakening the notion of Lorentzian length spaces just as much that it allows for a functor from the category of strongly causal Lorentzian manifolds to the corresponding category of…
We consider four dimensional lie groups equipped with left invariant Lorentzian Einstein metrics, and determine the harmonicity properties of vector fields on these spaces. In some cases, all these vector fields are critical points for the…
In this paper, we classify Left-invariant Ricci collineations associated to canonical connections and Kobayashi-Nomizu connections on three-dimensional Lorentzian Lie groups.
In analyzing a simple random walk on the Heisenberg group we encounter the problem of bounding the extreme eigenvalues of an $n\times n$ matrix of the form $M=C+D$ where $C$ is a circulant and $D$ a diagonal matrix. The discrete…
We provide a new, simpler, and more direct proof of the well known fact that for autonomous optimal control problems the Pontryagin extremals evolve on a level surface of the respective Pontryagin Hamiltonian.
We investigate the Dirichlet problem associated to the Schr\"odinger operator $\mathcal L=-\Delta_{\mathbb{H}^n}+V$ on Heisenberg group $\mathbb H^n$: \begin{align*} \begin{cases} \partial_{ss}u(g,s)-\mathcal L u(g,s)=0\,,\quad &{\rm in \,\…
Several quantitative notions of rectifiability in the Heisenberg groups have emerged in the recent literature. In this paper we study the relationship between two of them, the big pieces of intrinsic Lipschitz graphs (BPiLG) condition and…
Although convolution on Euclidean space and the Heisenberg group satisfy the same $L^p$ bounds with the same optimal constants, the former has maximizers while the latter does not. However, as work of Christ has shown, it is still possible…
The optimal constants are found for Lebesgue norm multilinear inequalities of Holder-Brascamp-Lieb type for arbitrary discrete Abelian groups. Previously a criterion for finiteness of the constants had been established for finitely…
