Abstract
In this paper, we present a method to obtain necessary conditions for optimality of singular controls in systems governed by partial differential equations (distributed-parameter systems). The method is based on the one developed earlier by the author for singular control problems described by ordinary differential equations. As applications, we consider conditions for optimality of singular controls in a Darboux-Goursat system and in control systems that describe chemical processes.
