We study a generalized version of Zermelo's navigation problem where the set of admissible velocities is a general compact convex set, replacing the classical Euclidean ball. After establishing existence results under the natural assumption…
The solution to the problem of finding a time-optimal control Hamiltonian to generate a given unitary gate, in an environment in which there exists an uncontrollable ambient Hamiltonian (e.g., a background field), is obtained. In the…
Zermelo's navigation problem seeks the trajectory of minimal travel time between two points in a fluid flow. We address this problem for an agent -- such as a micro-robot or active particle -- that is advected by a two-dimensional flow,…
We consider the Zermelo navigation problem on the ellipsoid of revolution (spheroid) in the presence of a perturbation $W$ determined by a mild velocity vector field, $|W|<1$, with application of Finsler metric of Randers type in the…
In this research, we consider the commercial aircraft trajectory optimization problem for a general cruise model with arbitrary spatial wind fields to be solved using the Pontryagin maximum principle. The model features two fundamental…
In this article, based on two case studies, we discuss the role of abnormal geodesics in planar Zermelo navigation problems. Such curves are limit curves of the accessibility set, in the domain where the current is strong. The problem is…
An optimal control problem described by the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation can be developed into a problem that can be solved by general computational fluid dynamics packages. We describe how this formulation would allow a classical…
The point vortex system is usually considered as an idealized model where the vorticity of an ideal incompressible two-dimensional fluid is concentrated in a finite number of moving points. In the case of a single vortex in an otherwise…
This paper addresses the time-optimal control problem for a class of control systems which includes controlled mechanical systems with possible dissipation terms. The Lie algebras associated with such mechanical systems enjoy certain…
We study a time minimization problem on the group of motions of a plane with admissible control in a half-disk. The considered control system describes a model of a car that can move forward on a plane and turn in place. Optimal…
In this paper, we prove a Pontryagin Maximum Principle for constrained optimal control problems in the Wasserstein space of probability measures. The dynamics, is described by a transport equation with non-local velocities and is subject to…
In addition to the theoretical value of challenging optimal control problmes, recent progress in autonomous vehicles mandates further research in optimal motion planning for wheeled vehicles. Since current numerical optimal control…
We study the problem of state transition on a finite time interval with minimal energy supply for linear port-Hamiltonian systems. While the cost functional of minimal energy supply is intrinsic to the port-Hamiltonian structure, the…
Torque-driven microscale swimming robots, or microrotors, hold significant potential in biomedical applications such as targeted drug delivery, minimally invasive surgery, and micromanipulation. This paper addresses the challenge of…
We use a specific geometric method to determine speed limits to the implementation of quantum gates in controlled quantum systems that have a specific class of constrained control functions. We achieve this by applying a recent theorem of…
We analyse the optimal times for implementing unitary quantum gates in a constrained finite dimensional controlled quantum system. The family of constraints studied is that the permitted set of (time dependent) Hamiltonians is the unit ball…
We rigorously establish the formal asymptotics of Neu for Gross-Pitaevskii vortex dynamics in the plane. Given any integer $n\geq2$, we construct a family of $n$-vortex solutions with vortices of degree $\pm1$, and describe precisely the…
The motion of point vortices constitutes an especially simple class of solutions to Euler's equation for two dimensional, inviscid, incompressible, and irrotational fluids. In addition to their intrinsic mathematical importance, these…
In the present work, we study the optimal control paths in the Zermelo navigation problem from the geometric and differential equations point of view rather than the optimal control point of view, where the latter has been carried out in…
Coastal erosion describes the displacement of sand caused by the movement induced by tides, waves or currents. Some of its wave phenomena are modeled by Helmholtz-type equations. Our purposes, in this paper are, first, to study optimal…
