We consider an optimal control problem for a system of local continuity equations on a space of probability measures. Such systems can be viewed as macroscopic models of ensembles of non-interacting particles or homotypic individuals,…
We study the numerical realisation of optimal consensus control laws for agent-based models. For a nonlinear multi-agent system of Cucker-Smale type, consensus control is cast as a dynamic optimisation problem for which we derive…
In this paper, we present a framework for solving continuous optimal control problems when the true system dynamics are approximated through an imperfect model. We derive a control strategy by applying Pontryagin's Minimum Principle to the…
This paper presents an optimal control problem to analyze the efficacy of counter-terrorism tactics. We present an algorithm that efficiently combines the Minimum Principle of Pontryagin, the shooting method and the cyclic descent of…
The Pontryagin's Maximum Principle allows, in most cases, the design of optimal controls of affine nonlinear control systems by considering the sign of a smooth function. There are cases, although, where this function vanishes on a whole…
An optimal control problem for a semilinear elliptic equation of divergence form is considered. Both the leading term and the semilinear term of the state equation contain the control. The well-known Pontryagin type maximum principle for…
The necessary conditions for an optimal control of a stochastic control problem with recursive utilities is investigated. The first order condition is the the well-known Pontryagin type maximum principle. When the optimal control satisfying…
This paper provides necessary conditions of optimality for optimal control problems with time delays in both state and control variables. Different versions of the necessary conditions cover fixed end-time problems and, under additional…
State-space models (SSMs) are effective architectures for sequential modeling, but a rigorous theoretical understanding of their training dynamics is still lacking. In this work, we formulate the training of SSMs as an ensemble optimal…
We show that mean field optimal controls satisfy a first order optimality condition (at a.e. time) without any a priori requirement on their spatial regularity. This principle is obtained by a careful limit procedure of the Pontryagin…
In this paper, we derive first-order Pontryagin optimality conditions for risk-averse stochastic optimal control problems subject to final time inequality constraints, and whose costs are general, possibly non-smooth finite coherent risk…
We study a continuous time stochastic optimal control problem under partial observations that are available only at discrete time instants. This hybrid setting, with continuous dynamics and intermittent noisy measurements, arises in…
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,…
This article treats optimal sparse control problems with multiple constraints defined at intermediate points of the time domain. For such problems with intermediate constraints, we first establish a new Pontryagin maximum principle that…
The consensus control with optimal cost remains major challenging although consensus control problems have been well studied in recent years. In this paper, we study the consensus control of multi-agent system associated with a given cost…
We study the time-optimal robust control of a two-level quantum system subjected to field inhomogeneities. We apply the Pontryagin Maximum Principle and we introduce a reduced space onto which the optimal dynamics is projected down. This…
In this paper we introduce the notion of optimization under control and communication constraint in a robotic network. Starting from a general setup, we focus our attention on the problem of achieving rendezvous in minimum time for a…
We study a constrained optimal control problem for an ensemble of control systems. Each sub-system (or plant) evolves on a matrix Lie group, and must satisfy given state and control action constraints pointwise in time. In addition, certain…
We consider the design of external inputs to achieve a control objective on the opinions, represented by scalars, in a social network. The opinion dynamics follow a variant of the discrete-time Friedkin-Johnsen model. We first consider two…
Motivated by the control of invasive biological populations, we consider a class of optimization problems for moving sets $t\mapsto \Omega(t)\subset\mathbb{R}^2$. Given an initial set $\Omega_0$, the goal is to minimize the area of the…
