Necessary conditions involving Lie brackets for impulsive optimal control problems; the commutative case
Maria Soledad Aronna, Franco Rampazzo
In this article we study control problems with systems that are governed by ordinary differential equations whose vector fields depend linearly in the time derivatives of some comp…

On the Control of Non Holonomic Systems by Active Constraints
Alberto Bressan, Ke Han, Franco Rampazzo
The paper is concerned with mechanical systems which are controlled by implementing a number of time-dependent, frictionless holonomic constraints. The main novelty is due to the p…
