We consider the chemostat model with the substrate concentration as the single measurement. We propose a control strategy that drives the system at a steady state maximizing the gas production without the knowledge of the specific growth…

For an optimal control problem, the concept of a strong local infimum is introduce, for which necessary conditions consisting of some family of "maximum principles" are formulated. If a function delivers a strong local minimum in this…

Many biological systems approach physical limits to their performance, motivating the idea that their behavior and underlying mechanisms could be determined by such optimality. Nevertheless, optimization as a predictive principle has only…

This paper presents a millisecond-level look-ahead control algorithm for energy storage with constant space complexity and worst-case linear run-time complexity. The algorithm connects the optimal control with the Lagrangian multiplier…

The paper considers the optimal control problem of inventory of a discrete product in regeneration scheme with a Poisson flow of customer requirements. In the system deferred demand is allowed, the volume of which is limited by a given…

Cell growth in size is a complex process coordinated by intrinsic and environmental signals. In a recent work [Tzur et al., Science, 2009, 325:167-171], size distributions in an exponentially growing population of mammalian cells were used…

Microbes require several complex organic molecules for growth. A species may obtain a required factor by taking up molecules released by other species or by synthesizing the molecule. The patterns of uptake and synthesis set a flow of…

An optimal control problem associated with the dynamics of the orientation of a bipolar molecule in the plane can be understood by means of tools in differential geometry. For first time in the literature $k$-symplectic formalism is used to…

We study the optimal control of storage which is used for both arbitrage and buffering against unexpected events, with particular applications to the control of energy systems in a stochastic and typically time-heterogeneous environment.…

A general maximum principle is proved for optimal controls of abstract semilinear stochastic evolution equations. The control variable, as well as linear unbounded operators, acts in both drift and diffusion terms, and the control set need…

This paper presents an extension of Keller's classical model to address the dynamics of long-distance trail running, a sport characterized by varying terrains, changing elevations, and the critical influence of in-race nutrition uptake. The…

In this note we develop the theory of the quantum Pontryagin principle for continuous measurements and feedback. The analysis is carried out under the assumption of compatible events in the output channel. The plant is a quantum system,…

In this paper, we study a class of fractional optimal control problems. A necessary condition for the existence of an optimal control is provided in the literature. It is commonly given as the existence of a solution of a fractional…

We obtain a maximum principle for stochastic control problem of general controlled stochastic differential systems driven by fractional Brownian motions (of Hurst parameter $H>1/2$). This maximum principle specifies a system of equations…

The fundamental theorem of the theory of optimal control, the Pontryagin maximum principle (PMP), is extended to the setting of almost Lie (AL) algebroids, geometrical objects generalizing Lie algebroids. This formulation of the PMP yields,…

Optimization-based models have been used to predict cellular behavior for over 25 years. The constraints in these models are derived from genome annotations, measured macro-molecular composition of cells, and by measuring the cell's growth…

Optimal control theory in epidemiology has been used to establish the most effective intervention strategies for managing and mitigating the spread of infectious diseases while considering constraints and costs. Using Pontryagin's Maximum…

In this paper we give a new approach to introduce switching strategies in a special class of optimal multiprocesses. Defined as the set of partitions of the time interval, switching strategies become the character of a classical control.…

We derive a Maximum Principle for optimal control problems with constraints given by the coupling of a system of ODEs and a PDE of Vlasov-type. Such problems arise naturally as ${\Gamma}$-limits of optimal control problems subject to ODE…

We propose a new scheme to infer the metabolic fluxes of cell cultures in a chemostat. Our approach is based on the Maximum Entropy Principle and exploits the understanding of the chemostat dynamics and its connection with the actual…
