The value function in ergodic control of diffusion processes with partial observations II

Vivek Borkar (2000)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The problem of minimizing the ergodic or time-averaged cost for a controlled diffusion with partial observations can be recast as an equivalent control problem for the associated nonlinear filter. In analogy with the completely observed case, one may seek the value function for this problem as the vanishing discount limit of value functions for the associated discounted cost problems. This passage is justified here for the scalar case under a stability hypothesis, leading in particular...

Some Applications of Optimal Control Theory of Distributed Systems

Alfredo Bermudez (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this paper we present some applications of the J.-L. Lions' optimal control theory to real life problems in engineering and environmental sciences. More precisely, we deal with the following three problems: sterilization of canned foods, optimal management of waste-water treatment plants and noise control

Existence of optimal nonanticipating controls in piecewise deterministic control problems

Atle Seierstad (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

Optimal nonanticipating controls are shown to exist in nonautonomous piecewise deterministic control problems with hard terminal restrictions. The assumptions needed are completely analogous to those needed to obtain optimal controls in deterministic control problems. The proof is based on well-known results on existence of deterministic optimal controls.

Control for the sine-gordon equation

Madalina Petcu, Roger Temam (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this article we apply the optimal and the robust control theory to the sine-Gordon equation. In our case the control is given by the boundary conditions and we work in a finite time horizon. We present at the beginning the optimal control problem and we derive a necessary condition of optimality and we continue by formulating a robust control problem for which existence and uniqueness of solutions are derived.
