Consider control systems described by a differential equation with a control term or, more generally, by a differential inclusion with velocity set $F(t,x)$. Certain properties of state trajectories can be derived when, in addition to other hypotheses, it is assumed that $F(t,x)$ is merely measurable w.r.t. the time variable $t$. But sometimes a refined analysis requires the imposition of stronger hypotheses regarding the $t$ dependence of $F(t,x)$. Stronger forms of necessary conditions for state trajectories that minimize a cost can derived, for example, if it is hypothesized that $F(t,x)$ is Lipschitz continuous w.r.t. $t$. It has recently become apparent that interesting addition properties of state trajectories can still be derived, when the Lipschitz continuity hypothesis is replaced by the weaker requirement that $F(t,x)$ has bounded variation w.r.t. $t$. This paper introduces a new concept of multifunctions $F(t,x)$ that have bounded variation w.r.t. $t$ near a given state trajectory, of special relevance to control system analysis. Properties of such multifunctions are derived and their significance is illustrated by an application to sensitivity analysis.
This is a preliminary version of our book. It goes up to the definition of dimension, which is about 30% of the material we plan to include. If you use it as a reference, do not forget to include the version number since the numbering will be changed.
Closure spaces are a generalisation of topological spaces obtained by removing the idempotence requirement on the closure operator. We adapt the standard notion of bisimilarity for topological models, namely Topo-bisimilarity, to closure models -- we
This work discusses the finite element discretization of an optimal control problem for the linear wave equation with time-dependent controls of bounded variation. The main focus lies on the convergence analysis of the discretization method. The stat
This paper provides necessary conditions of optimality for optimal control problems with time delays in both state and control variables. Differen
The paper is concerned with elongating the shortest curvature-bounded path between two oriented points to an expected length. The elongation of curvature-bounded paths to an expected length is fundamentally important to plan missions for nonholonomic
