This article is concerned with the optimal boundary control of the Maxwell system. We consider a Bolza problem, where the quadratic functional to be minimized penalizes the electromagnetic field at a given final time. Since the state is…
We obtain turnpike results for optimal control problems with lack of stabilizability in the state equation and/or detectability in the state term in the cost functional. We show how, under weakened stabilizability/detectability conditions,…
In this paper, a quadratic optimal control problem is considered for second-order parabolic PDEs with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions, in which the "point" control function (depending only on time) constitutes a source term. These…
This note discusses properties of parametric discrete-time Mixed-Integer Optimal Control Problems (MIOCPs) as they often arise in mixed-integer NMPC. We argue that in want for a handle on similarity properties of parametric MIOCPs the…
We propose a simple and original approach for solving linear-quadratic mean-field stochastic control problems. We study both finite-horizon and infinite-horizon problems, and allow notably some coefficients to be stochastic. Our method is…
We generalize the classical theory on algebraic Riccati equations and optimization to infinite-dimensional well-posed linear systems, thus completing the work of George Weiss, Olof Staffans and others. We show that the optimal control is…
