Viscosity solutions for an optimal control problem with Preisach hysteresis nonlinearities

Fabio Bagagiolo (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We study a finite horizon problem for a system whose evolution is governed by a controlled ordinary differential equation, which takes also account of a hysteretic component: namely, the output of a Preisach operator of hysteresis. We derive a discontinuous infinite dimensional Hamilton–Jacobi equation and prove that, under fairly general hypotheses, the value function is the unique bounded and uniformly continuous viscosity solution of the corresponding Cauchy problem.

A general Hamilton-Jacobi framework for non-linear state-constrained control problems

Albert Altarovici, Olivier Bokanowski, Hasnaa Zidani (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

The paper deals with deterministic optimal control problems with state constraints and non-linear dynamics. It is known for such problems that the value function is in general discontinuous and its characterization by means of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation requires some controllability assumptions involving the dynamics and the set of state constraints. Here, we first adopt the viability point of view and look at the value function as its epigraph. Then, we prove that this epigraph can...

The vanishing viscosity method in infinite dimensions

Piermarco Cannarsa, Giuseppe Da Prato (1989)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti

Similarity:

The vanishing viscosity method is adapted to the infinite dimensional case, by showing that the value function of a deterministic optimal control problem can be approximated by the solutions of suitable parabolic equations in Hilbert spaces.

A method for constructing ε-value functions for the Bolza problem of optimal control

Jan Pustelnik (2005)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The problem considered is that of approximate minimisation of the Bolza problem of optimal control. Starting from Bellman's method of dynamic programming, we define the ε-value function to be an approximation to the value function being a solution to the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. The paper shows an approach that can be used to construct an algorithm for calculating the values of an ε-value function at given points, thus approximating the respective values of the value function. ...

Deterministic state-constrained optimal control problems without controllability assumptions

Olivier Bokanowski, Nicolas Forcadel, Hasnaa Zidani (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In the present paper, we consider nonlinear optimal control problems with constraints on the state of the system. We are interested in the characterization of the value function without any controllability assumption. In the unconstrained case, it is possible to derive a characterization of the value function by means of a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation. This equation expresses the behavior of the value function along the trajectories arriving or starting from any position...
