Testing a General Theory for Optimal Flowering Time in Deciduous Perennial Plants as a Function of Growing Season Length

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
Climate change affects both the start and duration of growing seasons, creating complex effects on optimal flowering timing that go beyond simple responses to earlier springs. Using optimal energy allocation theory, we found a nonlinear relationship between growing season length and optimal flowering time which was supported by two experiments with ...

Pontryagin Maximum Principle - a generalization

open access: yes, 2009
The fundamental theorem of the theory of optimal control, the Pontryagin maximum principle (PMP), is extended to the setting of almost Lie (AL) algebroids, geometrical objects generalizing Lie algebroids. This formulation of the PMP yields, in particular, a scheme comprising reductions of optimal control problems similar to the reduction for the rigid ...

Deadbeat Robust Model Predictive Control: Robustness Without Computing Robust Invariant Sets

open access: yesInternational Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 428-438, 10 January 2026.
ABSTRACT Deadbeat Robust Model Predictive Control (DRMPC) is introduced as a new approach of Robust Model Predictive Control (RMPC) for linear systems with additive disturbances. Its main idea is to completely extinguish the effect of the disturbances in the predictions within a small number of time steps, called the deadbeat horizon.

A Survey of SIR‐Based Differential Epidemic Models for Control and Security Against Malware Propagation in Computer Networks

open access: yesSECURITY AND PRIVACY, Volume 9, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Unarguably, malware and their variants have metamorphosed into objects of attack and cyber warfare. These issues have directed research focus to modeling infrastructural settings and infection scenarios, analyzing propagation mechanisms, and conducting studies that highlight optimized remedial measures.

The Pontryagin maximum principle from dynamic programming and viscosity solutions to first-order partial differential equations

open access: yes, 1986
We prove the Pontryagin Maximum Principle for the Lagrange problem of optimal control using the fact that the value function of the problem is the viscosity solution of the associated Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation.

A numerical solution approach for non-smooth optimal control problems based on the Pontryagin maximum principle [PDF]

open access: yes
We consider nonsmooth optimal control problems subject to a linear elliptic partial differential equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. It is well-known that local solutions satisfy the celebrated Pontryagin maximum principle. In this

Lie Algebroids in Classical Mechanics and Optimal Control

open access: yesSymmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2007
We review some recent results on the theory of Lagrangian systems on Lie algebroids. In particular we consider the symplectic and variational formalism and we study reduction. Finally we also consider optimal control systems on Lie algebroids and we show
