In this paper we study and solve an optimal control problem motivated by applications in quantum and classical physics. Although apparently simple, this optimal control problem is not easy to solve and we resort to various elaborated…
In this paper, we study a class of finite-time control problems for discrete-time positive linear systems with time-varying state parameters. Although several interesting control problems appearing in population biology, economics, and…
The first-order optimality conditions for a generic nonlinear optimization problem are generated as part of the terminal transversality conditions of an optimal control problem. It is shown that the Lagrangian of the optimization problem is…
An optimal control problem on finite-dimensional positive cones is stated. Under a critical assumption on the cone, the corresponding Bellman equation is satisfied by a linear function, which can be computed by convex optimization. A…
This paper is concerned with second-order optimality conditions for Tikhonov regularized optimal control problems governed by the obstacle problem. Using a simple observation that allows to characterize the structure of optimal controls on…
The aim of this paper is to investigate the existence of optimal controls for systems described by stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) with locally monotone coefficients controlled by different external forces which are…
In this paper, we discuss the relationships between capacity of control in entropy theory and intrinsic properties in control theory for a class of finite dimensional stochastic dynamical systems described by a linear stochastic…
In this paper, we solve the problem of simultaneously driving in minimum time to arbitrary final conditions, N two level quantum systems subject to independent controls. The solution of this problem is obtained via an explicit description…
In this paper, a stochastic control problem under model uncertainty with general penalty term is studied. Two types of penalties are considered. The first one is of type f-divergence penalty treated in the general framework of a continuous…
This paper is concerned with the linear quadratic optimal control of discrete-time time-varying system with terminal state constraint. The main contribution is to propose a Q-learning algorithm for the optimal controller when the…
We consider an arbitrary network of $M/M/\infty$ queues with controlled transitions between queues. We consider optimal control problems where the costs are linear functions of the state and inputs over a finite or infinite horizon. We…
This article presents a constrained policy optimization approach for the optimal control of systems under nonstationary uncertainties. We introduce an assumption that we call Markov embeddability that allows us to cast the stochastic…
We consider a stochastic control problem with the assumption that the system is controlled until the state process breaks the fixed barrier. Assuming some general conditions, it is proved that the resulting Hamilton Jacobi Bellman equations…
Optimal control of the singular nonlinear parabolic PDE which is a distributional formulation of multidimensional and multiphase Stefan-type free boundary problem is analyzed. Approximating sequence of finite-dimensional optimal control…
In this paper, we study some control problems that derive from time optimal control of coupled spin dynamics in NMR spectroscopy and quantum information and computation. Time optimal control helps to minimize relaxation losses. The ability…
One of the fundamental issues in Control Theory is to design feedback controls. It is well-known that, the purpose of introducing Riccati equations in the deterministic case is to provide the desired feedback controls for linear quadratic…
We consider a general class of singular control problems with state constraints. Budhiraja and Ross (2006) established the existence of optimal controls for a relaxed version of this class of problems by using the so-called…
In this study, we consider an optimal control problem driven by a stochastic differential system with a stopping time terminal cost functional. We establish the stochastic maximum principle for this new kind of an optimal control problem by…
This paper considers the stochastic linear quadratic optimal control problem in which the control domain is nonconvex. By the functional analysis and convex perturbation methods, we establish a novel maximum principle. The application of…
In this paper, we study two kinds of singular optimal controls (SOCs for short) problems where the systems governed by forward-backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs for short), in which the control has two components: the…
