We introduce a family of hybrid discretisations for the numerical approximation of optimal control problems governed by the equations of immiscible displacement in porous media. The proposed schemes are based on mixed and discontinuous…
We consider the optimal control problem of minimizing some quadratic functional over all possible solutions of an internally controlled multi-dimensional heat equation with a periodic terminal state constraint. This problem has a unique…
Computer experiments are pivotal for modeling complex real-world systems. Maximizing information extraction and ensuring accurate surrogate modeling necessitates space-filling designs, where design points extensively cover the input domain.…
In this paper, we present a novel maximum entropy formulation of the Differential Dynamic Programming algorithm and derive two variants using unimodal and multimodal value functions parameterizations. By combining the maximum entropy…
Optimal control theory, also known as Pontryagin's Maximum Principle, is applied to the quantum parameter estimation in the presence of decoherence. An efficient procedure is devised to compute the gradient of quantum Fisher information…
Differential Dynamic Programming (DDP) is one of the indirect methods for solving an optimal control problem. Several extensions to DDP have been proposed to add stagewise state and control constraints, which can mainly be classified as…
In this paper we study optimal control problems in Wasserstein spaces, which are suitable to describe macroscopic dynamics of multi-particle systems. The dynamics is described by a parametrized continuity equation, in which the Eulerian…
This paper concerns some time optimal control problems of three different ordinary differential equations in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Corresponding to certain initial data and controls, the solutions of the systems quench at finite time. The goal to…
A very simple example of an algorithmic problem solvable by dynamic programming is to maximize, over sets A in {1,2,...,n}, the objective function |A| - \sum_i \xi_i 1(i \in A,i+1 \in A) for given \xi_i > 0. This problem, with random…
We consider a broad class of dynamic programming (DP) problems that involve a partially linear structure and some positivity properties in their system equation and cost function. We address deterministic and stochastic problems, possibly…
This paper is a survey of extensions to finite automata theory to model real-time systems as well as systems exhibiting mixed discrete-continuous behavior. Real-time systems maintain a continuous and timely interaction with the environment,…
This paper proposes an event-triggered control scheme for multivariable extremum seeking of static maps. Both static and dynamic triggering conditions are developed. Integrating Lyapunov and averaging theories for discontinuous systems, a…
We consider the optimization of a dynamical system by switching at discrete time points between abstract evolution equations composed by nonlinearly perturbed strongly continuous semigroups, nonlinear state reset maps at mode transition…
The hybrid optimal control problem with reach time to a target set is addressed and the continuity and uniqueness of the associated value function is proved. Hybrid systems involves interaction of different types of dynamics: continuous and…
This paper studies a discrete-time optimal switching problem on a finite horizon. The underlying model has a running reward, terminal reward and signed (positive and negative) switching costs. Using the martingale approach to optimal…
In this paper we develop necessary conditions for optimality, in the form of the Pontryagin maximum principle, for the optimal control problem of a class of infinite dimensional evolution equations with delay in the state. In the cost…
Optimality conditions in the form of a variational inequality are proved for a class of constrained optimal control problems of stochastic differential equations. The cost function and the inequality constraints are functions of the…
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…
In this paper, we consider a class of time-optimal control problems governed by linear parabolic equations with mixed control-state constraints and end-point constraints, and without Tikhonov regularization term in the objective function.…
To investigate solutions of (near-)optimal control problems, we extend and exploit a notion of homogeneity recently proposed in the literature for discrete-time systems. Assuming the plant dynamics is homogeneous, we first derive a scaling…
