In this paper we present a dynamic programing approach to stochastic optimal control problems with dynamic, time-consistent risk constraints. Constrained stochastic optimal control problems, which naturally arise when one has to consider…

We prove a generalization of Noether's theorem for optimal control problems defined on time scales. Particularly, our results can be used for discrete-time, quantum, and continuous-time optimal control problems. The generalization involves…

We present a new geometric unfolding of a prototype problem of optimal control theory, the Mayer problem. This approach is crucially based on the Stokes Theorem and yields to a necessary and sufficient condition that characterizes the…

In this paper we present a general framework that allows one to study discretization of certain dynamical systems. This generalizes earlier work on discretization of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems on tangent bundles and cotangent…

A formalism based on Pontryagin's maximum principle is applied to determine the time-optimal protocol that drives a general initial state to a target state by a Hamiltonian with limited control, i.e., there is a single control field with…

Closed bipartite quantum systems subject to fast local unitary control are studied using quantum optimal control theory and a method of reduced control systems based on the Schmidt decomposition. Particular focus is given to the…

We consider a stochastic control problem, where the control domain is convex and the system is governed by a nonlinear backward stochastic differential equation. With a L1 terminal data, we derive necessary optimality conditions in the form…

In this short communication, we first recall a version of the Pontryagin maximum principle for general finite-dimensional nonlinear optimal sampled-data control problems. This result was recently obtained in [L. Bourdin and E. Tr{\'e}lat ,…

In this paper we present explicit bounds for optimal control in a Lagrange problem without end-point constraints. The approach we use is due to Gamkrelidze and is based on the equivalence of the Lagrange problem and a time-optimal problem…

Optimal control remains as one of the most versatile frameworks in systems theory, enabling applications ranging from classical robust control to real-time safe operation of fleets of vehicles. While some optimal control problems can be…

A time optimal attitude control problem is studied for the dynamics of a rigid body. The objective is to minimize the time to rotate the rigid body to a desired attitude and angular velocity while subject to constraints on the control…

We review some recent results on the theory of Lagrangian systems on Lie algebroids. In particular we consider the symplectic and variational formalism and we study reduction. Finally we also consider optimal control systems on Lie…

Solving real-world optimal control problems are challenging tasks, as the complex, high-dimensional system dynamics are usually unrevealed to the decision maker. It is thus hard to find the optimal control actions numerically. To deal with…

We address a class of systems for which the solution to an H-infinity optimal control problem can be given on a very simple closed form. In fact, both the control law and optimal performance value are explicitly given. The class of systems…

This paper is the second part of our series of work to establish pointwise second-order necessary conditions for stochastic optimal controls. In this part, we consider the general cases, i.e., the control region is allowed to be nonconvex,…

We obtain a discrete time analog of E. Noether's theorem in Optimal Control, asserting that integrals of motion associated to the discrete time Pontryagin Maximum Principle can be computed from the quasi-invariance properties of the…

This paper considers an optimal impulse control problem of dynamical systems generated by a flow. The performance criteria are total costs over the infinite time horizon. Apart from the main performance to be minimized, there are multiple…

In this paper we consider an optimal control problem in large time horizon and solve it numerically. More precisely, we are interested in an aerial vehicle guidance problem: launched from a ground platform, the vehicle aims at reaching a…

In this work we recast parametrized time dependent optimal control problems governed by partial differential equations in a saddle point formulation and we propose reduced order methods as an effective strategy to solve them. Indeed, on one…

We discuss the use of Dirac structures to obtain a better understanding of the geometry of a class of optimal control problems and their reduction by symmetries. In particular we will show how to extend the reduction of Dirac structures…
