Towards historical roots of necessary conditions of optimality: Regula of Peano
For a multidimensional control problem involving controls , we construct a dual problem in which the variables ν to be paired with u are taken from the measure space rca (Ω,) instead of . For this purpose, we add to a Baire class restriction for the representatives of the controls u. As main results, we prove a strong duality theorem and saddle-point conditions.
Turnpike theorems deal with the optimality of trajectories reaching a singular solution, in calculus of variations or optimal control problems. For scalar calculus of variations problems in infinite horizon, linear with respect to the derivative, we use the theory of viscosity solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations to obtain a unique characterization of the value function. With this approach, we extend for the scalar case the classical result based on Green theorem, when there is uniqueness of the...
