Semigeodesics and the minimal time function

Chadi Nour (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of the minimal time function in a domain which contains the target set. We generalize the results of Clarke and Nour [J. Convex Anal., 2004], where the target set is taken to be a single point. As an application, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions to eikonal equations.

Semipermeable surfaces for non-smooth differential inclusions

Andrzej Leśniewski, Tadeusz Rzeżuchowski (2006)

Mathematica Bohemica

We investigate the regularity of semipermeable surfaces along barrier solutions without the assumption of smoothness of the right-hand side of the differential inclusion. We check what can be said if the assumptions concern not the right-hand side itself but the cones it generates. We examine also the properties of families of sets with semipermeable boundaries.

Semi-Smooth Newton Methods for the Time Optimal Control of Nonautonomous Ordinary Differential Equations

Rubeša, Jelena, Kunisch, Karl (2010)

Mathematica Balkanica New Series

AMS Subj. Classification: 49J15, 49M15The control problem of minimal time transition between two stationary points are formulated in a framework of an indirect numerical method. The problem is regularized and the monotone behavior of the regularisation procedure is investigated. Semi-smooth Newton method applied on the regularized problems converge superlinearly and usually produce a very accurate solution. Differently from other methods, this one does not need a-priory knowledge of the control switching...
