Small diffusion and fast dying out asymptotics for superprocesses as non-Hamiltonian quasiclassics for evolution equations.
We consider a quadratic control problem with a semilinear state equation depending on a small parameter . We show that the optimal control is a regular function of such parameter.
This article deals with the local sub-Riemannian geometry on ℜ3, (D,g) where D is the distribution ker ω, ω being the Martinet one-form : dz - ½y2dxand g is a Riemannian metric on D. We prove that we can take g as a sum of squares adx2 + cd2. Then we analyze the flat case where a = c = 1. We parametrize the set of geodesics using elliptic integrals. This allows to compute the exponential mapping, the wave front, the conjugate and cut loci and the sub-Riemannian sphere. A direct consequence...
