Minimizers that are not Impulsive Minimizers and Higher Order Abnormality
Monica Motta, Michele Palladino, Franco Rampazzo
This paper addresses two related problems in optimal control. The first investigation consists of compatibility issues between two classical approaches to deriving necessary condit…
Higher-Order Normality and No-Gap Conditions in Impulsive Control with -Control Topology
Monica Motta, Michele Palladino, Franco Rampazzo
In optimal control, extending the class of admissible controls is a common strategy to guarantee the existence of optimal solutions. However, such extensions may introduce a gap be…
Optimal impulsive control for time delay systems
Giovanni Fusco, Monica Motta, Richard Vinter
We introduce discontinuous solutions to nonlinear impulsive control systems with state time delays in the dynamics and derive necessary optimality conditions in the form of a Maxim…
An Abstract Maximum Principle for constrained minimum problems
Monica Motta, Franco Rampazzo
This article makes no claim to originality, other than, perhaps, the simple statement here called the {\it Abstract Maximum Principle}. Actually, the whole contents are strongly ba…
Impulsive optimal control problems with time delays in the drift term
Giovanni Fusco, Monica Motta
We introduce a notion of bounded variation solution for a new class of nonlinear control systems with ordinary and impulsive controls, in which the drift function depends not only…
A converse Lyapunov-type theorem for control systems with regulated cost
Anna Chiara Lai, Monica Motta
Given a nonlinear control system, a target set, a nonnegative integral cost, and a continuous function , we say that the system is globally asymptotically controllable to the ta…
