In practical problems certain essential constraints are usually imposed on the control set. For such problems the necessary conditions for optimal control stated in the preceding chapter are, in general, not suitable. Necessary conditions for optimality in such problems are furnished by Pontryagin’s maximum principle, which is the subject of this ...

The Pontryagin Maximum Principle in the Wasserstein Space
Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations, 2017We prove a Pontryagin Maximum Principle for optimal control problems in the space of probability measures, where the dynamics is given by a transport equation with non-local velocity. We formulate this first-order optimality condition using the formalism

Discrete maximum principle [PDF]
Mathematical Notes of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, 1983 The general method of subdifferentiation developed in the author's previous paper [Sov. Math., Dokl. 23, 367-371 (1981; Zbl 0474.46002)] is applied for the derivation of necessary optimality conditions in a finite-step dynamical problem with nonsmooth data and with a vector- valued criteria.

Implicit-Explicit Scheme for the Allen-Cahn Equation Preserves the Maximum Principle
, 2016It is known that the Allen-Chan equations satisfy the maximum principle. Is this true for numerical schemes? To the best of our knowledge, the state-of-art stability framework is the nonlinear energy stability which has been studied extensively for the ...

Discovery of the Maximum Principle
Journal of Dynamical and Control Systems, 1999A short history of the discovery of the maximum principle in optimal control theory, in the mid fifties, by L. S. Pontryagin and his associates is presented. There are pointed out the most important steps and individual contributions by the members of the group towards the final form of that it is known as maximum principle.

Nonlinear Analysis: Theory, Methods & Applications, 1997
In optimal control problems, where the operator describing the dynamics of the process and the terminal condition is not regular, that is, its first Fréchet derivative is not surjective at the optimal process, the fundamental first-order necessary conditions offered by the Pontryagin maximum principle do not provide useful and sufficient information ...

Maximum principles in analytical economics [PDF]
Synthese, 1971 The very name of my subject, economics, suggests economizing or maxi mizing. But Political Economy has gone a long way beyond home econo mics. Indeed, it is only in the last third of the century, within my own life time as a scholar, that economic theory has had many pretensions to being itself useful to the practical businessman or bureaucrat.

The strong maximum principle of E. Hopf says that a solution of an elliptic PDE cannot assume an interior maximum. This leads to further results about solutions of such PDEs, like removability of singularities, gradient bounds, or Liouville’s theorem saying that every bounded harmonic functions defined on all of Euclidean space is constant.

The stochastic maximum principle (SMP) gives some necessary conditions for optimality for a stochastic optimal control problem. We give a summary of well-known results concerning stochastic maximum principle in finite-dimensional state space as well as some recent developments in infinite-dimensional state space.

The maximum principle is formulated and proved first for control problems with fixed terminal time. As an illustration, a new derivation of the solution to the linear regulator problem is given. Next the maximum principle for impulse control problems and for time optimal problems are discussed.
